Review of 'My Normal'

Better-than-the-reviews suggested film about BDSM. Smart New York young lesbian works at a BDSM parlour while hoping to break into the film business, hangs out with her workmates, goes to lesbian clubs, has a loveable drug dealer friend. This differs from most other BDSM films in that she's not at all unhappy about her work; she and her workmates are obviously having fun and getting a kick out of the pain and humiliation that they heap on their male clients, all in the name of customer service. 

There are a few scenes, though nothing at all heavy. The plot comes from her finding a 'normal' lesbian girlfriend who isn't at all happy about the work, and for a while we see it through her eyes...but then they break up, and that isn't so dramatic, and then the thread about her making it into film-making takes over. A low-end film boss tries to persuade her to give him sex in return for a career break, she ties him up and threatens him instead, and he finds that he likes it, so she gets her break.
