3096 Days（2013） Hey what's up guys. Today
I'll show you a crime-drama film: "3096 Days"! Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care!
The movie begins with a girl on a skiing trip, hoping for the most anticipated
freedom from a traumatic nightmare. As they travel the snow-covered horizon in Austria,
an older man tries to guard and accompany her to the bathroom. The older man ensures that nobody
is in the toilet, so that the girl will not have a chance to speak with other people.
A few moments while the girl is taking a leak, a noise from the other cubicle breaks the silence,
which signifies that someone is there. Without hesitation, the girl immediately
approaches the stranger, and pleads for help. She tells her name and shares her situation of
being abducted. However, before she could get a response from a stranger, the older man suspects
her actions of trying to escape. the girl suddenly realizes and remembers her entire dreadful
kidnapping episodes over the past years. It's then revealed that the girl named Natascha,
has been captivated for many years by the older man as her kidnapper. She continuously
strives for the moment of escaping; but she only recollects her life from yesterday's memories.
One night, the bar's atmosphere gets filled with glorious melodies and graceful gestures.
In the middle of the crowd, Natascha enjoyably dances, while her proud dad is drinking and
chilling with the other adults. As the night gets darker, Natascha convinces her dad to go home; but
her dad only insists on continuing the party. The following day, Natascha wakes up late from
her mom's call. Her mom then gives her the self-made dress she must wear for school.
At first, she refuses to use it, since that only makes her appear bigger. But her mom commands that
she needs it as her uniform. While eating and preparing,
Natascha receives a warning from her mom about joining her dad in the bar. Her mom emphasizes
that she will never see her dad anymore if the same situation occurs again. With this statement,
Natascha disrespectfully answers, which leads her to gain a slap from her concerned mom.
Disappointed and emotional, Natascha walks out and ignores her mom's apology.
With tears in her innocent eyes, Natascha walks her way to school alone, while thinking about
the conflict with her mother. Not long after, the terrifying trauma is about to begin when an older
man nicknamed "Mr. Kidnapper", suddenly grabs and seals the defenseless girl inside the white van.
The horrific season starts when Natascha's scream becomes useless inside the vehicle.
Meanwhile, another pupil notices the incident,
but seems confused and shocked about the unexpected event.
Upon arriving in the chambers of suffering, Mr.Kidnapper
carries and brings the unconscious girl to a fortified secret room beneath his garage.
Time passes. Natascha finally opens her eyes, and realizes that she gets captive in
a four-cornered room. She continuously bangs the locked door and calls for help. However,
her little hope diminishes after she notices that the tiny space is windowless and soundproofed.
Moments later, Mr. Kidnapper enters the secret room, providing Natascha with some beddings,
food, and water. As a response, Natascha expresses her sadness and desire to go home. She keeps
banging on the door and shouting for help; but her efforts and energy get sealed in vain.
On the third day of the abduction, Mr. Kidnapper tries to find some books suitable for kids.
Unexpectedly, he reads and shares the story in the book for Natascha to be entertained. Natascha only
behaves and eats while listening. When it's time to sleep, he decides to leave the tiny cellar.
Then, Natascha requests a good-night kiss, as her mother always does. Without delay, he grants the
wish, and departs the tiny secret room. Meanwhile, Natascha's family constantly
grieves and longs for Natascha's presence. The new family's hobby is getting updates,
and listening to the television news. On the other hand, Natascha prefers to delight in the
inescapable situation by entertaining herself. The following day, Mr. Kidnapper welcomes his
own mother, who rarely visits the house. Little does his mother know that he has been hiding an
ultimate secret. they watch television, witnessing the news about the missing girl in town.
With such confidence, he pretends to be innocent and clueless about the crime.
Subsequently, Mr. Kidnapper goes to the secret room to check on Natascha.
As a sign of persistent courage, Natascha creates a letter for her family, and hands it to Mr.
Kidnapper. Then, Natascha shampoos her hair, and tries to speak about going back to her family.
he strongly affirms and brainwashes Natascha that nobody wants her back. The tension arises
when he gets irritated by Natascha's cry, leading him to punish and drown Natascha several times
before leaving. He then goes upstairs, and locks the secret room with many barriers.
One sunny day, Mr. Kidnapper's grandmother and mother visit him in his house. The moment of
truth almost exists, when two police officers do a quick investigation and interrogation.
he confidently denies, fabricates lies, and opens the van with no hints of the abduction.
He successfully conceals the truth after answering all the police officers' questions.
With darkness illuminating the tiny space of the room, Natascha can't help but only recollects
the good old days with her family. She reminisces about the days when happiness is the only rhythm.
Afterward, Mr. Kidnapper arrives again, bringing her some food to eat. Having a solid heart in
the chaos, Natascha asks for a clock, as no ray of sunshine appears in the room.
She also asks about the letter, and if her parents receive the message.
As this happens, Mr. Kidnapper lies about the letter, and ignores Natascha's questions.
He also installed a device in the room that he could use to talk and hear Natascha upstairs.
Natascha has no idea that the letter for her parents only gets destroyed by Mr. Kidnapper.
On the 183rd day in captivity, Natascha gets used to her unfortunate fate by diverting the situation
into something delightful. She imagines and acts like a teacher, as if some students are listening
to her. She even draws things and figures to the plane walls to amuse herself. Also, she even
pretends to be in an interview, where she answers questions about overpowering her kidnapper.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Kidnapper overhears Natascha's roleplay, and talks through a device installed
in the room. He orders Natascha to clean the plate and brush her teeth.
Lastly, he repetitively says and shouts the phrase "obey me!"
In the ongoing crisis, Natascha proceeds with a bright idea by using toothpaste and the leftover
food. She pretends to have a bruise and wound on her wrist for her to go outside. But Mr.
Kidnapper figures out the tactic, and decides to prohibit Natascha from eating as a punishment.
Desperate for liberty, Natascha screams once more for help, believing someone might hear
her plea. Mr. Kidnapper only explains to her that the room is perfectly hidden,
and secretly built against any revelations. With no footprints of success, Natascha gradually
accepts her destiny by distracting herself. She reads books and learns some words in a
day. Moments later, she speaks to the device in the room, hoping that Mr. Kidnapper could hear
her. She asks for any food after starving for four days, but receives no answer.
Four years later, in the corners of hell, Natascha remains as a prisoner in the same
room. The tribulation stays as Natascha still experiences starvation for several days.
Learning becomes her redeeming hobby to forget the problem. On the 1695th day, as she learns a new
book, the red days of her femininity arise. When Mr. Kidnapper discovers that Natascha is
having a period of womanhood, he gets disgusted and orders Natascha to clean the mess.
On the contrary, Natascha courageously suggests that she must shower in the bathroom instead.
Unexpectedly, Natascha's appeal to get upstairs has been fulfilled this time.
Seeing the stairs makes Natascha cry, as that is the first time again she can embrace the rays of
sunshine. Meanwhile, Mr. Kidnapper imposes a threat of killing her, if she attempts to make
any noise or action to escape. Upon arriving in the bathroom,
Natascha gets fascinated by the sound of the environment outside.
She takes her clothes off, and unconsciously showcases her figure to take a bath.
In a moment, Mr. Kidnapper welcomes his mother again, who keeps dropping by occasionally.
His mother notices a strand of hair in his coat, assuming he has a blonde girlfriend.
When his mother leaves, he proceeds to cut all the hair of Natascha to prevent the truth.
The 1837th day arrives, which happens to be the Christmas season for Natascha in a lonely place.
Mr. Kidnapper visits her in the secret room, giving her a piece of cake.
Natascha gets surprised upon receiving some presents from Mr. Kidnapper.
She feels excited to get a walkman and a new set of books. Despite the chaotic years, Natascha
remains grateful even for simple gifts. The eternal quest for freedom still resides
in the heart of Natascha. She wonders about her family during Christmas. But Mr. Kidnapper
only insists that he is the new family and even changes her name. In line with Christmas eve,
Natascha's real family still suffers the same pain for years for the missing girl.
One morning, Mr. Kidnapper fixes one part of his house with Natascha's help. Shortly, he requires
Natascha to remove her shirt, as there is no point in having a dress indoors. She takes her clothes
off as a naive and obedient girl, flaunting her innocent melons. When Natascha asks if he has
a girlfriend, he gets irritated, attempting to strike her with a hammer. Filled with dusks and
sands all over the body, Natascha asks to take a shower. Witnessing Natascha's heavenly shape, Mr.
Kidnapper gets mesmerized, and orders Natascha to sleep beside him upstairs the following night.
The night has come when Natascha needs to sleep beside Mr. Kidnapper.
With only obedience as the key, Natascha willingly accepts her never-ending cycle of despair.
He grabs a cable tie, and connects his left arm to Natascha's right arm. This way,
Natascha will not have a chance to escape, and they will have a better cuddle position in bed.
The determined girl starts to gain the trust of Mr. Kidnapper. She always behaves
and obeys to avoid Mr. Kidnapper's mood changes. But still, she gets imprisoned
endlessly in a tiny space secret room. Consequently, Mr. Kidnapper tries to relax,
and makes her night extraordinary by going to the mall and the bar. Driven by relaxing performances,
he joins the crowd, releasing his graceful moves. While a random lady seductively dances with him,
Mr. Kidnapper suddenly stops and decides to rush home.
When Mr.Kidnapper arrives home, he immediately calls and orders Natascha to sleep again with him.
He gets a cable tie again, binding his right hand to Natascha's left hand.
This way, he can flex his manly manifestations and worldly desires toward Natascha.
The vulnerable girl gets undressed with her mountains revealed.
As they lay in bed, Mr. Kidnapper wants to climb her mountains. Natascha attempts to refuse;
but his strength dominates for the erotic plan to commence. he then takes his hormone bag,
and embarks on an exhausting journey to climb the grassy mountains.
Two minutes later, they finish, and Natascha expresses her desire to go to the garden, and to
her surprise, Mr. Kidnapper agrees. As they both travel the garden filled with deafening silence,
Natascha utters words that insult him. Then, she gets dragged back to her tiny secret room.
She also chooses to deal with it positively, by dancing and
distracting herself from the seeming misery. The day after being an erotic enslaved person,
Natascha becomes a servant who needs to do hard labor for Mr. Kidnapper. She prepares food with
her body half naked. She even gets punished for a tiny mistake, and gets deprived of any amount
of food. However, she still imagines the day where freedom revisits her world. When she sees the food
on the table, she breaks the rule by grabbing and eating it. But he is too strong, stopping
and bringing her back to the secret room. The menacing sorrow resumes when Mr. Kidnapper
commands her to go down, and change the filter in their water pipes. Natascha has no choice but to
obey. As she goes deeper into the tiny tube, the cruel Mr. Kidnapper closes the hole mercilessly.
Natascha screams amid the darkness and gets released after a few moments.
This time, Natascha's patience runs out, and she begins throwing punches at his face.
The following day, Mr. Kidnapper gets comfortable with Natascha, though there are still seasons of
unpredictable brutality. He listens and grants Natascha's desire for her hair.
He even gives Natascha a new pair of jeans and a shirt, before they go to the mall.
As they travel to a store, Mr. Kidnapper emphasizes that he's ready to kill anyone
if Natascha chooses to escape. Meanwhile, Natascha is astonished to see the world again.
She almost confronts a stranger; but the voice of Mr. Kidnapper exists in her mind.
When they return home, Natascha feels disappointed about losing a significant opportunity.
But she never loses hope as she endeavors to behave according to Mr. Kidnapper's liking.
She acts cheerful as they fix the room, and pretends to be joyous for every present.
One bright day, Mr. Kidnapper's mother pays a visit again,
which means Natascha is in the secret room again. There, Natascha hears the news about her missing,
which brings back her motivation to survive. When the room is ready, Mr. Kidnapper orders
Natascha to sleep with him. With a cable tie bundled, Natascha will face another despair again.
She asks him why he chose her as the victim. Mr. Kidnapper reveals that abducting her
is explicitly the plan. He states that he fell in love with the smile, which leads him to build the
secret room for several months. He continuously checks Natascha until the moment of abduction.
Afterward, Mr. Kidnapper moves again, starting to plow her grassy farmland.
With all these unfavorable circumstances, Natascha gets tired and tries to end her life.
She grabs a tissue, and puts it on a stove to create a cloud of smoke. But in the middle,
she chooses to stop it, and redeem her life instead. Natascha endures several punches and
strokes again, when Mr. Kidnapper figures out her suicide attempt because of the smell. After the
punishment, Natascha writes all her experiences, signifying a glimpse of the possibility.
The day of the skiing trip comes, and Mr. Kidnapper includes Natascha in the said activity.
She is having a hard time and is guarded by the kidnapper. When Natascha needs to go to
the toilet, he checks the room first to ensure that nobody is in there.
The horrible memories from the past eventually resume in the present. When Natascha asks the
stranger for help in the toilet, her chance of survival fades as Natascha cannot speak English.
Mr. Kidnapper outrages as he believes Natascha communicates with the stranger in the toilet.
The brutality emerges when he beats Natascha again, providing her bruises.
Natascha's 18th birthday approaches, so Mr. Kidnapper awards her with a cake and a new dress.
he instructs Natascha to wear the gift, so he can dance with her. While trimming the leaves
in the garden, a neighbor notices both of them. But Natascha is forbidden by him from
speaking. As a result, Natascha blames herself for doing nothing about the earlier chance.
One sunny afternoon, Natascha prepares food for both of them. Seconds later, he shares
the plan of selling the ban, which means that Natascha needs to clean it as soon as possible.
While Natascha vacuums every corner of the car, she glances at an unlocked gate,
which triggers her faith in redemption. When Mr. Kidnapper hugs and guards Natascha,
a phone call rings, which distracts his attention. While he's speaking on the phone with the buyer,
Natascha brings back her highest hopes, and is eager to return to her world.
She briskly runs away from hell, and untiringly seeks help. The restoration
of her life begins upon seeing an older woman, who eventually contacts the police officers.
She then utters her full name when the police officers arrive.
The movie ends with Mr. Kidnapper, who loses his drive to leave, and ends his own life by
facing an approaching train. On the 3096th day, Natascha finally achieves her world and life again
after the frightening years in captivity. She meets her parents at the station, ready to build
a new beginning. Indeed, the movie depicts desperate ways of defining and shaping life,
