Conversation with Intimacy Coordinator Beth Pacunas follows 4/25 screening.

It’s the dream of a lifetime–Sandra and Daniel are burgeoning actors making a film with a top-shelf director. But when they begin an intimate scene and Daniel crosses a line, no one will ever be the same.

Sandra and Daniel are friends and colleagues, proud of their acting achievements and electrified by the potential of the current production. A casual conversation about their upcoming sex scene barely registers with Sandra until shooting, when things spiral out of control in taut a he-said-she-said chain of events. Actors Fiona Palomo (Sandra) and Alfonso Dosal (Daniel) carry the weight of this intense thriller, and director Jorge Cuchí’s earnest examination of the #MeToo era plunges into controversy with a fierce intelligence that has been garnering attention at festivals around the globe.

“[A]n ever-tightening chokehold of a film, both an uncomfortable exploration of consent and sexual misconduct and an indictment of mob justice in the face of social media.” –Wendy Ide, Screen International
