The film is semi-autobiographical, reflecting on Brisseau’s own legal troubles following his previous film, Secret Things .
The film's most striking layer is its origin: it serves as a defiant response to director Brisseau’s real-life legal troubles. In 2002, Brisseau was arrested and later convicted for sexual harassment after three actresses accused him of pressuring them to perform sexual acts during auditions. The Exterminating Angels mirrors this history, following a director named François who conducts boundary-pushing screen tests to explore female pleasure and taboos. the exterminating angels 2006 720p torrent hot
