Spectacle tells a dramatic story of orphaned girl who, after her mother's death, has been under the influence of her sick minded and deeply fallen in love with her stepfather
Еhe girl tries to find her place in this strange situation using her
girlish charm. She fulfils Humbert's dreams getting financial
profits out of it.
Their relationship inspired the father to write the story of a wolf
and a sheep. Even though the whole situation is becoming
dangerous and almost impossible to continue. The relationship

The atmosphere of the church emphasized the tragic situation
of the girl.

This aura perfectly enhances the tragic character of Lolita.
