My Mistress
Love hurts.
Directed by Stephen Lance
Produced by Mini Studios
A dark, psychologically fraught exploration of two damaged people seeking connection through an illicit and transgressive relationship, anchored by grief and emotional hunger.
After the death of his father, a 16-year-old boy struggles with anger and instability, distancing himself from his mother. His search for escape leads him to a lonely dominatrix living nearby, a woman accustomed to giving and controlling pain. Drawn to her world, he seeks both solace and love, while she finds herself pulled into a bond that neither expected but both need.
