“And then he pretended to tie my hands behind my back, and the whole time he kept screaming ‘Shut the fuck up! Shut the fuck up!’ I tell you, it is so refreshing to be with someone who likes to fuck outside the box.”

– Samantha, Sex And The City
18 year old Frankie attempts to act out a Sex and the City-inspired rape-fantasy role play, with an acquaintance she meets at a party. Frankie is desperate to be sexually adventurous and desired, but can she deal with the realities of this increasingly dark encounter?

One-woman comedy drama, exploring the affects of hypersexualised media on young people’s relationships, sex lives & self-esteem. This one woman comedy-drama aims to unpick the complexities of female sexuality.
