Pleasure is a movie by director Ninja Thyberg centered around a young woman from Sweden wanting to be a mega star in the porn industry. What might sound like a cheap thrill is an in depth look into the world of porn in times of #metoo.

This is an industry struggling to find its place in many ways. We all know that what you see is not what you get or in other words what happened. The heroine Linnea (Sofia Kappel) is only 19 years of age and determined to make it in the City of Angels. She ist self confident, knows how to play the game and does everything to get ahead. But you can pretty quickly figure out that it isn’t that easy and The Valley in Los Angeles isn’t just the valley of dreams but broken dream.

The movie succeeds in not just being a one sided “don’t you ever watch porn after seeing this” piece but much more. One thin is for sure; you won’t see the indurstry the same way after watching this. There are moments when it’s tough to watch; however it’s supposed to be like that. Praised at Sundance and shown at the Zurich Film Festival this is a great movie – for sure.
