Shame

A handsome, outwardly successful 30-something Manhattan corporate executive lives in total emotional isolation, obsessively consuming internet pornography, prostitutes, and anonymous sexual encounters to manage his severe sex addiction, until his emotionally unstable younger sister—a nightclub lounge singer—moves into his minimalist apartment and exposes the deep sibling trauma beneath his compulsions. Steve McQueen and Abi Morgan's Venice Best Actor-winning psychological drama starring Michael Fassbender and Carey Mulligan.
