Concussion

Starring Robin Weigert, Maggie Siff, Ben Shenkman, Johnny Tchaikovsky and Julie Fain Lawrence. Directed by Stacie Passon.

Abby (Robin Weigert), an attractive 40-something, wealthy housewife, is smacked in the head by her son’s baseball, she begins to yearn for something else, something more than her banal suburban life. Determined to take on a new project, she buys a pied-à‐terre in Manhattan. But walking around the city streets reminds Abby of what it feels like to be sexy and her pent-­‐up libido compels Abby to invent a secret double life that draws her deeply into the world of high-end prostitution for women. As Abby becomes more and more obsessed by her new role, and as her decisions become increasingly reckless, we realise that she won’t be able to contain this secret forever…
