The Duke of Burgundy
2014
Synopsis
Day in and day out, lovers Cynthia and Evelyn enact an elaborate sadomasochistic fantasy as mistress and maid. But as their ritual of domination and submission begins to turn stale, Cynthia yearns for something more conventional, while Evelyn tries to push their taboos even further.
Editorial
British one-of-a-kind director Peter Strickland explores a S&M see-sawing power dynamic between two women with piercing psychological insight in this extraordinarily sumptuous feast of image and sound. An increasingly abstract, intoxicating erotic drama lush with pictorial beauty.
