But why commit suicide when you were just about to find a purpose?

[Emily Varley]

My opinion is that human beings need a purpose. Perpetual boredom leads to feelings of 'What is the point? What is my purpose? Why do I bother to breathe?' Most people in harder circumstances aren't suicidal because they have a purpose; to find food or to find enough money for food. Survival becomes our purpose. There are hints of genetic depression, too. The mother was probably also depressed. So they were all bored, isolated, feeling trapped and physiologically depressed.

i watched the movie, it was a little confusing..

[patsybob]

Yeah I always got that feeling too, they were squeezed too tight by their overbearing parents and it turned them into prisoners. It acts as a salutary tale to warn about overprotective parenting. Cecilia's suicide also marked the idea that the parents were over protecting them and started the worsening decline of the family. Like how they just moved the fence after her death and thought it solved the problem when clearly it solved nothing.
