Fairplay SPOILERS Follow.

When we see a young couple so in love, they can’t keep their hands off each other, it seems kind of sweet. But what happens when they work at the same firm and get promoted over another?

Especially when the girl is the one who gets chosen rather than the “man” – well, this is what you are going to see in the latest Netflix film Fairplay. Seems interesting enough? It is. Very much. 

Fairplay: What’s so intriguing?

During the Tudum event after the release of Fairplay, the director-writer Chloe Domont shared some exciting things related to the movie. She said the film is not mainly about female empowerment but also about male fragility. It is something to ponder over and deeply examine the whole situation. 

It all starts with a consensual sexual relationship, which immediately becomes a proposal. But soon, due to various complications, turns, and twists, it becomes a sexual assault, and everything changes.
