L'aube des félines

Is it exploitative pinku revival? Is it dark comedy? Is it tragedy? Is it a celebration of humanity? All I know is that it tries to be too many things at once. That makes it simplistic, lacking in character development and disjointed. The actors and actresses are believable and one can be sympathetic to their characters but they are reduced to one dimensional players by poor scripting and plot development. Given the number of threads that would add another 2 hours to develop. As a tribute to the 1970s Pinku, Night of The Felines, it ticks off the right boxes with S&M, ropes, strangulation and sex in public. But as a drama on social issues of female exploitation and broken relationships, it falls flat. Watchable once but not again.
