Echo Chamber - TIFF 2024 - Vol 1 (Paying For It)

‘Paying For It’ is a film made with love, enthused with love, and about love! Directed by Sook-Yin Lee, and co-written with Joanne Sarazen!

A live-action adaptation of acclaimed alternative-cartoonist Chester Brown’s best-selling graphic novel. In the late 90s, Chester (Dan Beirne) and Sonny (Emily Lê) are a long-term, committed, romantic couple. When Sonny wants to redefine their relationship, Chester, an introverted cartoonist, starts sleeping with sex workers (Andrea Werhun, Hannia Cheng, Jamie Whitecrow, Lisa Smolkin, Lea Rose Sebastianis, Dusty Lee, Becky Johnson, Kitoko Mai, Tanya Cheex, Dainty Smith, Becca Willow Moss, Kaitlyn Chalmers-Rizzato) and discovers a new kind of intimacy in the process. PAYING FOR IT is about love, sex, and non-monogamy for adults. It deals with the complicated subject of the exchange for sex-work versus the complications of romantic love.
