Pleasure

"If you’re curious what a feminist take on this world looks like, 'Pleasure' might surprise you as much as it did me." - Mahnola Dargis, New York Times

Bella Cherry arrives in Los Angeles with dreams of becoming an adult film star, but she soon learns that fame won't come easy as she harnesses her ambition and cunning to rise to the top of this mesmerizing and singular world.


"Nothing is that unfamiliar in the plot of Pleasure, but Thyberg, who hails from Sweden, approaches her subject with such a clinical gaze that it's hard to shake the feeling that she's doing something revolutionary." - E. Zuckerman, Thrillist

"It’s raw and unfiltered. It is neither a condemnation nor a celebration of sex work and adult entertainment. Rather, it dares the viewer to challenge their preconceived notions, no matter which side of the debate they find themselves on." - C. Robinson, People's World

"With a compelling central character, Pleasure offers a nuanced look at the porn industry that doesn't tell its audience what to think, while using its setting to examine larger societal issues of gender, race, and power structures." - Queer Review
