Based on Hysterical Piano Concert a confession by Rachmaninova
Inspired by Stoya in "Hysterical Literature", this entrancing take on a pianist's erotic fantasy sees her performing for a rapt audience while she is naked. Caressed, teased and driven to a point of erotic ecstasy, a pianist indulges in her ultimate voyeuristic dream, a climactic finale heightened by her increasingly feverous playing, the dream almost tipping over into a sensuous and exquisite reality. Imagine the ultimate fantasy: to have your own sex stories reenacted by other people in cinematic films. This is the concept that lies beneath Erika Lust’s most ambitious project to date: XConfessions. Each month Erika handpicks two confessions and adapts them into edgy, beautiful and steamy short films. This film is now featured on NETFLIX!

Combining multiple art forms such as music and film was a beautiful experience for me. This film is deeply moving and at the same time tantalisingly erotic. I hope we captured your fantasy Rachmaninova!
