Description

Claire, a bright but restless 23-year-old, dives into an exploration of kink with the encouragement of her best friend, Skye. What begins as playful curiosity on a dating app quickly spirals when Claire matches with Leo, a charismatic older man who lures her into a captivity that blurs the line between coercion and desire. Months later, Claire resurfaces — bruised, haunted, and back in the Bushwick apartment she once shared with Skye. Torn between the safety of home and the dark pull of her submission, Claire struggles to adjust to her old life. Through fractured timelines of present-day recovery and flashbacks of captivity, Stockholm dissects friendship, sexuality, and the unsettling psychology of power. The proof-of-concept offers a chilling glimpse into Claire’s paradoxical truth, where survival and surrender are indistinguishable, and freedom might not be what she wants after all.
