STORY DESCRIPTION

I, Masochist is the story of eight women who participate in a “Performance Art” exhibition featuring naked women in pain bondage. Shelly is the college professor artist who devised the performance. “W” is an independent businessman who, among many other things, designs and sells specialized bondage equipment. Shelly initially asks W’s advice and opinion about the concept of the performance. He helps her make it even more erotic and also helps her to live out her own fantasy performance in one of the cages. After the run of the show is over, Shelly once again contacts W. This time it is a request for him to interview– and write the stories of– the seven models in her show. Another professor, Dr. Collins, is doing a study and wants information on masochism. He thinks the girls lie to him, but would tell their whole story to W. Shelly pleads with W to do the interviews, and he finally agrees to hear the stories of how these seven women became masochists and what it means in their lives. The stories end up being very graphic, very powerful, and very erotic– especially the final masochist, which ends up being Shelly, herself.
