Exodus was selected for inclusion in the Orizzonti section of the 64th Venice Film Festival.
The Orizzonti section of the Venice Film Festival was set up by Marco Müller in 2004 during his first season as director of the Venice Film Festival. The Orizzonti section aims to provide an overview of new trends in cinema, and in particular cinema which merges fiction and documentary. It has successfully gained the world-wide attention of the public and critics alike with some of the most significant films of the third millennium.
