Shame

About the movie

Brandon is a 30-something man living in New York who is unable to manage his sex life. Under his shroud of regular-guy normalcy he’s addicted to pornography and sex and the release it provides. After his wayward younger sister moves into his apartment, Brandon’s world spirals out of control.
From critically acclaimed director Steve McQueen (Hunger), Shame is a compelling and timely examination of the nature of need, how we live our lives and the experiences that shape us. Featuring a stellar cast with Golden Globe nominee Michael Fassbender (Inglorious Basterds, Hunger, A Dangerous Method) and Carey Mulligan (An Education, Wall St. 2) in the leading roles. Winner of the Best Actor Award and the Critic’s Award at the Venice Film Festival 2011.
