Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh unveils the world's most elusive porn megastar, Sasha Grey, as his muse in this bold, sensual drama. THE GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE takes you deep inside the convoluted reality of high-end escorts - a business that provides men with the ultimate 'GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE'. The only catch? A $2,000 price tag.
Following TRAFFIC, the OCEANS 11 trilogy and CHE, Soderbergh adopts 21 year old Grey to tell the story of a highly sought after call girl, running her own business on her own terms, holding down her career and juggling her career with a fully supportive boyfriend.
In a world where prostitution is now ingrained in international culture, this timely film finally unpicks the reality of elite escorts - through the eyes of one of the most prolific, complex porn stars today, Sasha Grey.
"How to we ascribe value to certain things? And, in this case, why does kissing require an incredible surcharge in the sex industry? What is that about? That's the thing that (Girlfriend Experience) do that other prostitutes don't. You're not allowed to kiss. That's a whole different thing. Here, you're paying top dollar to be able to make-out, and I think that's interesting" Stephen Soderbergh (Director)
