There's No Such Thing As Going Too Far.

2012102 min4.6 / 10

A dark coming-of-age drama about a vulnerable young woman escaping abuse only to find herself exploited within the sex industry, exploring survival, complicity, and the cost of escape.

18-year-old Angelina shuffles between school, a dead-end job, her exploitative boyfriend, and home, where her life consists of cleaning up after her alcoholic mother and protecting her younger sister from their menacing stepfather. After arranging an escape to San Francisco with her best friend Andrew, she soon finds herself dating a coke-addicted attorney and becoming immersed in the local porn industry, mentored by lesbian director Margaret, who has more than just a professional interest in Angelina's talents.
