    Daniel has lived all his life in the isolated world of dance, who works his body everyday, controling every movement & stretch through dance. One day, alone, he's taken by 3 women who chain him to the floor. His freedom, choice, movement, even bathroom option, gone. They control his body, if he refuses, he's punished severely. Once freed, he can't return to the world he knew. He isn't the man he was, he never will be again. He can't talk about it. He moves where he doesn't stand out, and has rough sex with many women; looking for, but fearful of, finding the 3 women. The sex means nothing except he has control. Then he meets a girl who is clearly not one of the women. He tries but is far from recovered. Why him? The women knew who he was, had seen him perform. Maybe they were a "fan club". They weren't looking for love, they wanted to use him, embarrass him. The women aren't important. This is Daniel's story of regaining self-esteem and psychological well being afterward.

    Good performances, but strange movie with no real answers as to why this was happening to this dancer other than the thrill of it. If your into watching a guy get raped and tortured by three women ( and they do show pretty much everything) this movie is for you.

    Yes   |   No

    This was a worthless movie. Dont waste time, unless you want to see a male version rape victim. Horrible....

    Yes   |   No
