The Little Death
THE LITTLE DEATH stars Courtney Patterson as a strong-willed reformer who ventures into a turn-of-the-century brothel to confront the owner (Daniel May), and liberate a young woman whom she believes is held there in sexual captivity. While the brothel-owner attempts to mesmerize and seduce the would-be rescuer, a meek student (Clifton Guterman) and a young prostitute (Christie Vozniak) become tragic pawns in the game of sexual cat-and-mouse that is rapidly unfolding. Based on the play DEATH AND DEVIL by Frank Wedekind (SPRING AWAKENING), integrated with Anton Chekhov's short story A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN.
