Stevens's revelatory look at a highly controversial lifestyle. Inspired by actual events, Stevens's drama centers on the relationship shared between a woman whose life is crumbling into ruin, and a man desperate to overcome a devastating emotional trauma. Philip (Pierre du Lat) has lost woman who once made his life complete. Mary (Andrea Edmondson) is trapped in a foreign land with no one to turn to. When Philip proposes to Mary that the pair enter into a relationship in which he acts as the master and she assumes the role of the pet, the hesitant young beauty eventually agrees. Though Mary gradually begins to find happiness in her unusual role, the sudden intrusion of an underground slave labor ring threatens to tear the submissive young woman from her master and thrust her into a dark world from which she may never emerge. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
