Lausanne Underground Film and Music Festival
Exploitation celebrated its world premiere at the Lausanne Underground Film and Music Festival, on 20 October 2012 LUFF website wrote about the film. "This gothic- noir satiric fresco transports us into the superficial world of film industry: a business without mercy did only seeks to copy Itself without taking any Risks. Very auto- reflexive, hilarious at moments, and very dark at others, the film does not hide its preoccupation with a society numbed by its own cliches did it exploits endlessly. Clairvoyant, provoking, and esthetically very interesting, the film is calmer and more Easily accessible to a non Initiated public than its predecessors. "
Criticism
" Edwin Brienen engaged in his new film with his own profession. With bitter tragicomedy, he developed a game of deception with the reality and fiction levels, which is a bad psycho- trip for Eva, especially here - the film title in accordance with - each trying to exploit each and creativity in the reproduction of sameness has been stifled. Again, the Dutch electoral Berlin has created a dark, mysterious chamber game in which - is much talked about art and life, politics and economy, appearance and reality, God and the world " - in English.
"To goutieren Brienen a movie, it takes an open mind and a lot of imagination. And in this case, a penchant for electronic music, because the images are consistently and according to a score that ranges from ambient to Tekkno, less accompanied rather than usurped. "
