Lust Life Love
2019, 93 minutes
A star-crossed love story set in the world of polyamory and sex parties in New York City.
Lust Life Love is not only a sex-positive narrative film based on the writer’s personal experiences – it’s a nuanced exploration of contemporary relationships. The story navigates the world of non-monogamy through three main characters: Veronica, the Anaïs Nin of her circle, immersed in open love but controlling with her partners. Daniel, a newcomer who goes from being cautious and sensitive to behaving with excitement that borders on greed. And Maya, yoga entrepreneur by day, hedonist by night. She lives for pleasure and pushes boundaries. By placing these complex characters in a stylish, seductive world of hedonistic parties and negotiated intimacy, Lust Life Love not only shows people what it is like to be poly – for an hour and a half, the viewer is invited to inhabit the perspective of Veronica Willow, a woman who romanticizes her unconventional lifestyle.
