Remedy (2013)

In the shadowy depths of New York City's underground kink clubs, a young woman embarks on an odyssey into the commercialized realm of BDSM, trading the safety of anonymity for a paycheck. Adopting the moniker Mistress Remedy, she steps onto the stage of strangers' most intimate fantasies, assuming roles that tread the line between pleasure and pain. However, her journey takes an unexpected turn when a manipulative night manager entices her into sessions with dominant clients, flipping the script and casting her as the submissive. The pressures and hazards of this uncharted territory soon expose Remedy's naivety. Her personal experiences of submission fail to equip her for the high-stakes game she's now part of. Faced with a choice, she must decide whether to retreat or stay and confront not only her clients' expectations but also her own boundaries. Inspired by the real-life experiences of director Cheyenne Picardo, Remedy is a fusion of imaginative storytelling and authentic biography. The film delves into the complexities of commercial BDSM, revealing its highs and lows, its beauty and brutality, its humor and its horror. Yet, it navigates this labyrinth in step with Remedy, unveiling truths only as fast as she uncovers them. In its exploration, Remedy refrains from casting judgment, offering instead an immersive and insightful glimpse into a world that blurs the line between fantasy and reality.
