		*BONDAGE -* Director, short-film based on award-winning playwright, David Henry Hwang’s play of the same name. A provocative and epigrammatic tale of psychological and sexual warfare at it's most decadent. It deals with issues of race and racial stereotypes set against the backdrop of the B&D, S&M and fetish culture.
Henry David Hwang				Paige Davis	Ryun Yu

Synopsis: In a Los Angeles sadomasochistic parlor, dominatrix, Terri (Paige Davis), and her client, Mark (Ryun Yu), are clad head to toe in leather costumes concealing their faces and ethnicities. These elaborate disguises allow them to play out fantasies based on racial stereotypes and sexual mythologies. She becomes an African-American woman to his white liberal man. Exchanging biting social observations laced with stinging humor, they progress through their power games, exposing the arbitrariness of racial mythology. All the while, however, haunted by a growing awareness that beneath their own masks, despite their best efforts, they may be moving to the most terrifying reality of all – true intimacy transcending racial boundaries.

Bondage: The Motion Picture - Directed by Esquire Juachem based on the play by David Henry Hwang.
"[David Henry Hwang] the author of M. BUTTERFLY proves to be a wry observer of contemporary mores."
̶ NEW YORK TIMES

"...an intriguing piece of writing by one of the most intelligent and original new voices in the American theatre."
̶ THE DETROIT NEWS
