Slut

Short Film

Director: Marissa Faith Benson
Cinematographer: Rea Xenitopoulos

SLUT! is a provocative coming-of-age drama that explores systemic patriarchy and its subtle influence on young girls in suburbia. Through the lens of competition and sexuality, the film highlights how women can unknowingly perpetuate sexism. It concludes with a compelling message, encouraging viewers to reflect on the damaging effects of derogatory language around sex and the slimy ways women undermine each other.
After a night out with her new girlfriend Kiara, 18-year-old Pearl clashes with her best friend Bree, the fierce leader of their tight-knit friendship group. As tensions escalate, "SLUT" delves deep into the themes of internalised misogyny and its profound impact on self-worth and sexual identity.
