Swung (2015)
Synopsis
David's life is on the slide: he's in the middle
of a divorce, broke and 'can't get it up'. His girlfriend, Alice, is his
rock, but the magazine she writes for is going down and the pressure is
on to find a story. While job hunting online, David stumbles across the
perfect antidote to his boredom: a 'Swingers' site. The resulting inbox
of lewd invitations on the home-laptop justifiably upsets Alice, until
she realises this could be just the 'story' she needs. The idea of
uncovering the swinging scene causes quite a stir in Alice's office and,
much to David's chagrin, she is urged to pursue the story. Their first
reluctant foray is an hysterically low-rent initiation, however, an
unexpected upturn for David's manhood is all the extra encouragement
they need. As events accelerate beyond their control the once adoring
couple become lost and fundamental questions are asked of their
relationship and them as individuals. In darkness, touched by many
others, they will have to find themselves...
