The defining elements of the screenplay Exposure are the rich dialogues and intelligent characters such as those found in Tarantino films, the effervescent sprit of Wyler's Roman Holiday and the power of Coppola's The Godfather.Internatonal Exposure tells the story of two women who resist their past, but are inevitably drawn further within it. Tatyana has left her Russian mob roots to start a fashion magazine business on her own in Mexico. Her goal is to never involve herself in organized crime again, but her reality - the business is failing. Her old ways of dealing with problems have too much inertia to suppress. She decides to kidnap Sara Provenzano, a member of an Italian mafia empire to save her magazine. Sara, lusting for fame and battling the momentum of her family in a struggle for independence, seduces Enzo an aspiring photographer. They both run off to enter Tatyana's modeling contest.In Sara's wake the Provenzano family scrambles across the globe to find her even before Tatyana can attempt the kidnapping, and Sara falls into a conspiracy that twists and turns to the very end. Against increasingly escalating odds and crisis, Tatyana and Sara maintain a step ahead of their antagonists but never each other. The woman that will finish on tops is ultimately the woman that is the most determined to fulfill her goal.A deep, powerful character list reminiscent of Tarantino's Pulp Fiction includes a mysterious Russian "Repair Man" who's cold professionalism begins where Jean Reno's "Clearner" left off, a closet homosexual bodyguard, a pair of seemingly incompetent yet surprisingly capable kidnappers, and a cast of women who re-defind this decade's meaning of independent. High fashion, bikini models, Italian mafia, intelligent characters, and a start-to-finish fast moving storyline fill Exposure with the elements of the next blockbuster film. Approx 120 minutes. Production is plan to start in 2007.<h3>OUR FINISHED FEATURES</h3><a title="Bikini...weapon of choice" href="http://www.ujena.com/specials-details.php?vv=54&mm=9939"><img title="Bikini...weapon of Choice" style="width: 149px; height: 196px" height="196" alt="Bikini...weapon of Choice" src="http://www.ujena.com/wthumbs/082041aa87f87eefc6c8.jpg" width="149" align="left" border="0" />Bikini...weapon of choice</a>.  Hundreds of bikini models from all over the world were interviewed and photographed.  Each had their own reason why the bikini is their weapon of choice...We discovered in making this film the power of the bikini.  We traced the history of the bikini and along the way uncovered why this provacative piece of clothing has been raising eyebrows for nearly sixty years.  "Pure entertainment from start to finish.  Finally a film that gives us inside information on why the bikini is so magical," Dan Pulcrano (Metro Newspapers) stated.2005 . 78 minutes . color .
