From the film-maker:

 

The painting has an immediate visual impact. Although Rubens uses colour to full effect, I wanted to invert this by using the bare minimum of colour. The composition is theatrical and the style bold. I wanted to twist the picture's disturbing theme, shifting the power over to the women.

A piece inspired by Peter Paul Rubens,  The Rape of the Sabine Women, probably 1635-40,
