Cinema Erotica returns with Shame (2011), Steve McQueen’s searing portrait of erotic compulsion and the silence of modern intimacy.
Michael Fassbender stars as Brandon, a man whose carefully controlled New York life unravels under the weight of his sexual addiction. When his sister Sissy (Carey Mulligan) unexpectedly moves in, the fragile walls between secrecy and exposure begin to collapse.
Unflinching and hypnotic, Shame confronts the space where desire is stripped of connection—where the pursuit of pleasure becomes indistinguishable from loneliness. McQueen’s lens is both clinical and tender, a study of bodies that both seek and repel touch.
A landmark of contemporary erotic cinema, Shame asks: what remains when intimacy is consumed by compulsion? And how far will we go to hide the parts of ourselves we cannot bear to reveal?
