On this episode, we discuss Halina Reijn's erotic thriller BABYGIRL and why it's such a captivating depiction of sex and womanhood! Reijn has openly talked about how the film is meant to explore the gap between men and women sexually, and breaking the stigma's that are often associated kinks and specific desires. It goes without saying, but we had the best time with this one.

Panel: Megan Kearns, Jaylan Salah, Amy Thomasson

On this episode, JD and Brendan discuss the new film from the German filmmaker Christian Petzold MIROIRS NO. 3! We are huge fans of Petzold, and that alone intrigued us, but he's back once again with his latest muse Paula Beer. As you could probably guess, MIROIRS NO. 3 has all of the usual Petzold trademarks and great performances, so we had a lot of fun with this one.
