The Escort

When Eric (Kevin Leslie) pays Veronica (Olivia Moyles), an escort, for sixty minutes of her time he thinks he will be able to convince her to leave her work. Veronica is no wallflower though, and soon the pair is locked in an intense verbal battle that becomes more personal than either could have envisaged. When the hour is up, both are left feeling that things will never be the same again. Based on the experiences of both current and former sex workers, The Escort taps into the social conversation sparked by the #TimesUp and #MeToo campaigns to explore how sexual politics is played out in the digital age. Told in real-time, The Escort boldly holds up sexual relationships for examination, while giving a strong voice to women in the profession and beyond. A brave and fast-paced feature-length debut by Phoenix Waters Productions, The Escort is sure to have your mind racing long after the final credits roll. The Escort was named the Winner of the Award of Excellence at the IndieFEST Film Awards.
