The Story

The pale blue light of computer monitors illuminate the grungy corners of New York. Professional online gambler Jack becomes obsessed with a San Franciscan cam-girl, Scarlet, played by a bewitching Julia Fox (Good Time). Conversations between them soon deepen and the customer-client line blurs. But it’s a chance encounter in Chinatown that takes this relationship to its boiling point. 

Director Ben Hozie interrogates the nature of online relationships in this transgressive modern erotic parable. With quirky humour the film explores digital fantasy and the existential isolation of a digital world. The two leads bring this immersive vision of New York to life and ask us to ponder the meaning of love when connection is just one click away.
