Do not go alone into the mangroves!
The mangroves protect the island.
Duality: protecting and entangling.
Protection
They can be very protective, for example for young innocent girls. There is also a desire to be protected.
On the other hand there is the theme of being handed over, being given away to strangers as in being married. It can be the situation of being handed over even to enemies, for the survival of the group. Here we find a strong duality, like a father who loves his daughters but still has to give them away to brutal strangers because of the customs of traditional marriage, or a general who has to extradite some civilians to let his army survive.
It is a clash of responsibilities.
