“Kudos to the creators of this unusual documentary, which manages to present sadomasochism as a compelling subject without being offensive and educational without trying to conform. The S&M community couldn’t have asked for a better spokeswoman than the delightful Mistress Karen, a 20-something dominatrix who looks like the girl next door. She hosts this journey into the world of whips, chains, and leather with the charisma and poise of a TV news anchor. While it leaves no stone unturned in the areas of bondage, hardware, cyber S&M, fashion, and just about every other aspect of this subculture’s lifestyle, the cleverly filmed tape is about as disturbing as a PG movie.”
