Shame

Brandon is addicted to work, and even more so to sex. Spurning commitment in any form, he indulges daily and without restraint in every possible erotic experience. Despite a redemptive moral ending, the subject matter is sordid, unsavoury even, but it is elevated by a haunting style, comparable to no other, and by Michael Fassbender’s exceptional performance, which earned him a string of prestigious awards. Shame won the Grand Prix award of the Belgian Film Critics Association.
