Flyway Film Festival 2009

Lorraine Schultz works as a nurse in a doctor�s office. Every day she rides the bus to work, listens to her co-workers gossip, and returns home to her boyfriend. None of it really matters. When she's cheated on, it's far from emotionally devastating. After her new roommate Adrian moves in, Lorraine is drawn into a secret, seedy world of lonely men, cheap motel rooms, and whips and chains. Meanwhile, Adrian�s dreams of becoming a glamorous fashion model are cut short when the only employment she can find is showcasing mattresses in a strip mall. It doesn�t help that her boyfriend, Mitch, seems more interested in the increasingly distant Lorraine. In pursuing their hidden desires and misguided dreams, both girls find their paths crossing in ways they never expected. Will Lorraine's secret life as a dominatrix be revealed? Will Adrian sell enough mattresses to be featured in the big coupon spread? Will Mitch's unwholesome interests turn into an uncontrollable obsession? MODERN LOVE IS AUTOMATIC answers these questions, but only while asking even more.
