Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Director Fotopoulos comes with quite a rep in the North American indie scene. Certainly this cool and highly controlled b/w study of paranoia and powerplay in the world of lingerie modelling (don't come, however, expecting lacy seductions) is formally inventive and resolutely modern. It'strong on interiors and text, and distinctively scored - early Cronenberg, without the genre trappings, comes to mind as an atmospheric cousin, but it's got its own unsettling, sometimes alienating tone.Author: GE
