Some bad fucking luck that all this pent-up rage is landing on a first-time Senegalese-French female filmmaker who was aiming for satire, and not on the many people selling young girls' bodies for entertainment for real

Admittedly I haven't watched the show but I thought the complaint was that the Netflix poster didn't campfire the spirit of the filmmaker's vision? That she *wasn't* one of those trying to sell young bodies and so it shouldn't have that poster?

In other words, my understanding was the backlash was at how Netflix marketed it, not at the show itself.

That was some people's complaint, but they were complaining because the vast majority of the people reacting wanted everyone involved with the movie arrested and thrown in prison
