At the Toronto Film Festival screening in September, TwitchFilm.com said, “SHAME sees Steve McQueen seriously upping his game from HUNGER. The must fulfilling movie about unfulfillment made in the 21st Century.”

Of the film and it’s leading actor, The Hollywood Reporter said, “Driven by a brilliant, ferocious performance by Michael Fassbender, SHAME is a real walk on the wild side.”

Watch Michael Fassbender and Carey Mulligan in Momentum Pictures’ SHAME.

Synopsis:

Brandon (Michael Fassbender) is a 30-something man living comfortably in New York balancing a busy job and active social life. When the wayward Sissy (Carey Mulligan), turns up at his apartment unannounced, Brandon’s carefully managed lifestyle spirals out of control.

From award winning director Steve McQueen (HUNGER), SHAME is a compelling and timely examination of the nature of need, how we live our lives and the experiences that shape us.

SHAME will be distributed by Fox Searchlight Pictures in the US December 2, 2011; the UK January 13
