Reviews

“Cloven Hoofed premiered at the 27th Rotterdam International Film Festival in February 1998. In their invitation, Rotterdam programmers said the intention was to include the film in" The Cruel Machine "(together with Peeping Tom), a program which is to" do justice to some very recent disturbing, but great films. " "Films that revitalize the ongoing and urgent as never before creating debates about the really dark side of the image. By no means we are looking exclusively for the hard core or the extreme but we do not want to avoid it either. We would like to follow sincere, courageous and uncompromising film-makers all the way. Maybe sometimes the films in this program will be tough to watch, but they will deserve the effort. " From the reason for the invitation to the Rotterdam Film Festival
