A film by Olivier Assayas made in 2002.
This film combines the idea about 'snuff movies', pure pornography, people being used as sex slaves, the cold and cynic world of pornographic films and business enterprising as a whole with the use of animations and manga to hide and package these themes in order to appeal to younger generations.
Two companies fight for the commercial rights to 'porno mangas', as they noticed that it has become a huge and profitable branch within this industry, and in order to beat the opponent they use 'spies' to infiltrate each others organizations.
Trying to shock us - I guess - Assayas does not succeed.
This film had some very interesting aesthetic points of views but I can't say it made me upset, if this was the intention?
The animated sex was much more 'lush' though than the 'real' and Assayas had created some appealing scenes of dystopic character, in my opinion.
Aurore appreciated this film more than I did. She had seen it before.
In some of the roles we saw Connie Nielsen, Chloë Sevigny and Gina Gershon.
