"I think everyone should be free to live their lives as they choose, even if that choice happens to be different from what others consider normal." 🤝💖
 
I'm glad to see more films like this coming out! The way they're tackling complex issues like consent and power dynamics in the kink community is super important. I mean, it's not always easy to make these topics sexy and relatable on screen. But from what I've seen of "Pillion", they seem to be getting it right 👍

I love that the film is avoiding stereotypes and tropes, instead going for authentic representation. It's all about giving voice to marginalized communities, you know? And it sounds like the cast really delivers, especially Farrant and Kwanten as Colin and Ray - their chemistry is palpable 😊.

But what I'm a bit more hesitant about is how this film will resonate with people outside of the kink community. Will they be able to relate to the themes and emotions? That's always gonna be a tough sell for some viewers, I think 🤔
