Book cover

Jerzy Kosinski's novel includes scenes of rape, bestiality and incest. The film collected the strongest of the novel and some people have not tolerated these images. So far, they report that people leave the cinema before the time and the reasons are due to the strength of the story.

Many media believe that the film will become the hidden genre or banned films. With the positive but inhumane criticism it is receiving, many countries will refuse to screen it in theaters.
