I don't disagree with you. I wrote in another comment that it was like trying to depict ISIS as horrible and cruel and you film 10 minutes of someone living peacefully in Syria and 10 minutes of them escaping ISIS, and then 90 minutes of badass martyrdom action scenes with sicknasty nasheeds.
I actually don't think the director made this 'intended' to be a creep film, I think she has her head too far up her own ass of "artistry", and would probably say 'NO SEE I INTENTIONALY MADE IT CREEPY TO UNDERSCORE THE CREEPINESS!'
But that's... really... not a good idea. And I'm 100% certain that every executive who approved this without saying "yeah, you gotta change this" is a creepy sex pervert.
I do think you need to depict the subject matter in some fashion though. There are a lot of utterly brainless retard parents out there who are thoroughly out of touch and have no idea what the fuck their kids are exposed to.
Like you said, you can make a film out of this. You practically could do it just in editing.
But it's all in the cinematography and how you present it, and that is where this film fails so fucking catastrophically that it deserves the criticism... I just think people should be depicting the criticism fairly and properly.
