A Very Ordinary World

A quietly uncomfortable, clear-eyed study of a young man drifting through exploitative spaces, more observant than sensational.

Overview: Romain, 18, is a sociology student. In rebellion against his native environment and imprisoned in a toxic romantic relationship with a woman who has total control over his life, he thinks he can find in the pornographic adventure a way of emancipation. Instead he discovers a very ordinary environment.
How it feels: Dark, cynical, melancholic and satirical. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Identity, isolation, coming-of-age, power
Content: Strong sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
