Hard Stop
Upon uncovering that her mother, Claire (Reagan Foxx), is entangled in a scorching affair with her boyfriend Darren (Lucky Fate), Erin (Jane Wilde) declares she's had enough. She urges Claire to enroll in a recovery facility known as Hard Stop, a seven-day intensive aimed at treating those gripped by insatiable sexual cravings. This isn't Claire's first illicit liaison, but this one strikes far too personally, leaving Erin unyielding in her resolve. Claire grumbles and reluctantly consents. In the early days at Hard Stop, Claire mocks the program entirely, including the required group therapy gatherings. That's where she connects with the other attendees: Vanessa (Sarah Arabic), Jasmine (Little Puck), Emily (Kenna James), and Olivia (Anna Claire Clouds). Under the watchful guidance of their expert counselor (Olivia Jay), the women are encouraged to divulge their erotic struggles. Claire, however, views it as absurd and stays withdrawn. Yet, as she absorbs the explicit tales from the others in the following days, her outlook transforms. From Emily's vivid account of her cheating tryst with two online lovers (Nathan Bronson and Vince Carter), to Vanessa's confession of her forbidden hookup with a student (Diego Perez), these raw stories reveal their humanity. Even the bold Jasmine shares her steamy escapade of being ravished by four men at a wild party (Christian Wilde, Tommy Pistol, Codey Steele, and Robby Apples). Emily also exposes her intense encounter with a detective (Seth Gamble) who was probing her for lewd public acts. These unfiltered revelations deeply affect Claire, inspiring her to finally reveal the catalyst of her sexual obsession. We revisit a younger Claire (Theadora Day) who is lured into a forbidden seduction by her stepfather (Dick Chibbles), ultimately shattering her other parent's (Charlie Forde's) emotions. In this moment of raw exposure, she confronts her desires and commits to transformation. By the end of the seven days, Claire has evolved significantly. She understands there's more effort needed to reform her habits, but she's thankful for the connections she's made and knows these allies will stand by her when required.
