Contoured, essentially scandalous theme, secrete a lots of unspoken turbulence
The sequence at the girls' hostel from where William calls Rosemary away on the pretext that her mother is ill is remarkable.
"I'm ill I'm suffering!" bellows William before tearing Rosemary's clothes off.
The explicit depiction of anxieties that underline the clandestine liaison is keenly contoured in the two protagonists' body language, and the way the director silhouettes them in mid close-ups.
"Sins" is by no means an outstanding piece of work.
But its essentially scandalous theme is underscored by moments of structural serenity and a quiet subtlety that avert the imminent danger of surfacing salaciousness.
The seaside location - almost replicating Ramesh Sippy's "Sagar" - secrete a great deal of unspoken turbulence.

Could you please explain to me the emboldened parts?
Though I know "secrete" means "produce", turbulence means "confusion around", "a great deal of" means "lot of"; scandalous means "making upset or shocked" and "theme" means "main subject of the film" but no idea what "essentially" means here.
