Eve Stephens (Tilda Swinton in her US film debut), is a bi-sexual lawyer on the edge of professional breakthrough, personal breakdown, and sexual awakening in this erotic psychological drama. Shocking when it was first released in 1996 and now deemed a “Feminist Classic,” FEMALE PERVERSIONS returns in a brand new 4K restoration. A Sundance Grand Jury Nominee from director Susan Streitfeld.

FEMALE PERVERSIONS marks the feature film debut of director and co-writer Susan Streitfeld as well as the American film debut of Tilda Swinton. Based on the 1991 psychology text Female Perversions: The Temptations of Emma Bovary by Louise J. Kaplan, Streitfeld’s film is an inspired amalgamation of erotic drama and psychological thriller set within the cutthroat environs of the Los Angeles justice system
