French cinema group UniFrance condemns the backlash surrounding Netflix’s Cuties.
Maïmouna Doucouré recently defended Cuties at a Toronto Film Festival panel on French filmmakers sponsored by UniFrance.
She also believes that Netflix’s original Cuties poster is what caused the initial outrage against her movie.
The French cinema group has come out to denounce what they call “hate messages, insults, and unfounded speculations about the intent of the director and her producers.”
