Directed by Isabella Eklöf • Drama • With Vic Carmen Sonne, Lai Yde • 2018 • 85 minutes
The trophy girlfriend leaves the sidelines to take center stage in a story that looks sun-kissed, fun, and sexy until the tables are turned—much like its central character.
Young and beautiful Sascha discovers her dream life of recklessness and fun comes at a price when she is welcomed into the “family” of her drug-lord-boyfriend at his holiday villa in the port city of Bodrum on the Turkish Riviera. Physical and psychological violence are a way of life in this volatile household, but when Sascha seeks the attention of another man, the velvet veneer is stripped bare: is it possible for her to leave this life of luxury and violence behind?
