Shame
Drama
Brandon, a thirty-something man living in New York, eludes intimacy with women but feeds his deepest desires with a compulsive addiction to sex. When his younger sister temporarily moves into his apartment, stirring up bitter memories of their shared painful past, Brandon's life, like his fragile mind, gets out of control.
VIBE
This is a profoundly unsettling and raw character study, plunging into the isolating depths of compulsive desire and self-loathing. It feels stark and unflinching, a slow-burn descent into a bleak emotional landscape. The atmosphere is heavy, intimate, and often suffocating, leaving a lingering sense of despair and the weight of unspoken trauma.
