They say that sex sells and they wouldn't be wrong, but when all you have display is a sexy image, you get interst, but not in your film.
It's possible that the exploration of the life of a well known German model and activist may appeal to a certain demographic of the population, this trailer doesn't do a tremendous job of selling it to those who don't have an interst.
I can't imagine this being the kind of commercial success in the United States that most Oscar voters want to see in their small films.
I have not seen this film.
