Alexander Skarsgård plays Dom to Harry Melling's sub in this charming BDSM gay rom-com, like 'Love Actually' with leather.
Colin (Harry Melling, from the Harry Potter franchise), a shy young man living with his loving parents, hasn't made the connections he's been looking for in the gay bar scene. When he crosses paths with Ray (Alexander Skarsgård), a charismatic leather-clad biker, he begins to learn the joys of sexual submission, or what he comes to call "devotion." First-time writer-director Harry Lighton handles the ups and downs of this love story—including a meet-the-parents scene—with impressive economy and elegance.
Lighton adapts Adam Mars-Jones's popular novel Box Hill: A Story of Low Self-Esteem into a sweetly melancholic rites-of-passage-into-manhood story. Premiering at the Telluride Film Festival, this endearing film marks the first entry in a new and unexpected genre: the BDSM romantic comedy.
