So the ending with Sister A. was just the expression of her discomfort with the doubt of Father doing or not doing the molesting? That very well could be, but it seemed more important, more significant, than just that. Like there had to be something else. But I could be reading into it too much. I will be honest, I came into it expecting a metaphor on faith.
