The film, after the first thirty minutes that is widely considered as an uncomfortable watch, is a collection of bitter-sweet moments, with the scale tipping towards the bitter side of things, and symbolism. The final sequences, involving Kirby's character and a tree, is also one such example. The constant growth of the apple tree signifies the constant growth of Kirby's character, who can be seen with an infant during her final moments in the film, which indicates that she has stepped into a new life and is now experiencing what motherhood feels like, a sensation that was denied to her throughout the runtime of the film. One can also speculate that perhaps, Martha (the name of Kirby's character in the film) opted for adoption, given the experience that she had at the beginning of the film. However, details regarding her relationship status have been left to the imagination of the viewers as Martha and the child, in their final scene, are only seen with each other. It is established very early on in the film that LeBeouf's Sean has become an estranged partner as he retreated in order to spend time with himself while he processes and grieves the tragedy.
