A darkly intricate study of obsession, desire, and hidden trauma set within the claustrophobic world of a Toronto strip club, where multiple characters' emotional lives intersect in morally ambiguous ways.

In the upscale Toronto strip club Exotica, dancer Christina is visited nightly by the obsessive Francis, a depressed tax auditor. Her ex-boyfriend, the club's MC, Eric, still jealously pines for her even as he introduces her onstage, but Eric is having his own relationship problems with the club's female owner. Thomas, a mysterious pet-shop owner, is about to become unexpectedly involved in their lives.
