Set in 2006, this fictionalised account follows the host of a controversial reality television programme built around confronting men who arrive at a sting house expecting to meet a minor, examining how the show became a cultural phenomenon at the height of its success. Blending real institutional detail with dramatised construction, the film interrogates the collapsing line between fiction and reality behind the spectacle of televised public shaming.
Review:
A morbidly fascinating, dazzlingly cast inquiry into performative justice and reality television spectacle, anchored by a chillingly committed lead performance, even where its narrative ambitions occasionally outpace its grip.
