A high-powered CEO puts her career and family on the line when she begins a torrid affair with her much-younger intern.
Romy is a successful CEO in a large corporation in New York. She is happily married to Jacob and they have two children.
One day, she meets Jacob, a new intern in her company with whom she starts a torrid affair.
What risks will she be willing to take to realise her deepest fantasies?
All of us carry a little black box filled with taboo fantasies that we might never share with anyone. I am fascinated by the duality of human nature, and this film is an attempt to shine a light, without judgement, on the opposing forces that make up our personalities. To me, feminism is the freedom to study a woman’s vulnerability, love, shame, rage, and inner beast.
