Macht der Begierde (2001)
Computerfreak Richard Longman hat in Silicon Valley eine Menge Geld mit Programmieren gemacht, doch sein bisheriges Leben deshalb wenig genossen. Als er die Bekanntschaft der attraktiven Stripperin Florence macht, überredet er sie, drei Tage mit ihm in Las Vegas zu verbringen. Nach einigem Zögern willigt Florence ein – ihr Abkommen wird zu einer Reise in die dunklen Geheimnisse ihrer Sexualität. Was als bezahltes Arrangement begann, gerät durch die Eigendynamik echter Begierde außer Kontrolle...
