Steve McQueen’s follow-up to the award winning Hunger again stars Michael Fassbender (Fish Tank, Jane Eyre); this time as Brandon, a New York corporate executive irretrievably addicted to sex and pornography.
Struggling to hold his life together in the face of his sexually articulated self-loathing, he’s further disturbed when his equally damaged sister Sissy (Carey Mulligan) comes to stay. Invading his personal and professional lives, her mere presence also reminds him of their shared upbringing - a nameless horror he’d rather forget. Fassbender is utterly extraordinary as Brandon; whose ugly tastes somehow don’t render him a monster, rather complete a picture of pity, as his unspoken desperation is so horribly transparent.
