When Black sound artist H (voiced by Starr Busby) receives the offer of a lifetime from self-identified ‘white and woke’ tech giant Librate, they are forced to choose between their community of listeners and the allure of financial freedom. From Bed Stuy to Mexico City, over cocktails and Twitter, H battles financial and ethical pressures until they lose themself and their loved ones in one fell swoop. A sonic journey through lust, loss, and a search for forgiveness, Pleasure Machine explores the consequences of caring deeply in a system that wants to turn care into a consumable.
