Preaching to the Perverted

In this provocative British sex comedy-drama, a young computer whiz kid is hired to infiltrate London's BDSM scene to gather evidence of its activities for a government minister who wants to shut it down. However, the inexperienced Peter Emery falls for the club's proprietress, Tanya Cheex, a New York dominatrix with a penchant for sadomasochism, and finds himself torn between his mission and his newfound feelings. Featuring well-known BDSM performance artists and a sumptuous style, "Preaching to the Perverted" is a rare example of a film that presents a dominatrix as a fully fledged character, highlighting the importance of consent and boundaries in any sadomasochistic encounter or relationship.
