Choke
If this movie doesn’t touch you, go ahead and touch yourself.
Directed by Clark Gregg
Produced by Choke Film, Dune Entertainment III
A darkly comic, morally ambiguous portrait of a sex-addicted con artist navigating addiction, filial duty, and self-deception with irreverent humor and uncomfortable intimacy.
A sex-addicted con-man pays for his mother's hospital bills by playing on the sympathies of those who rescue him from choking to death.
