Amber is drowning in debt, cycling through gig work, and just got scammed out of the last of her money. So when she visits her estranged aunt Sandy—once a dazzling Playboy Bunny, now a sharp-tongued, terminally ill woman—she hopes for a handout. Instead, Sandy has a proposition: help her die.
What follows is a darkly funny, emotionally charged battle of wits. As the two dance around each other's vulnerabilities. Sandy, ever the manipulator, plays on Amber’s financial desperation, dangling the promise of inheritance. Amber, caught between disgust, self-interest, and a flicker of empathy, is forced to reckon with a brutal moral dilemma.
'ASSisted Seduction' is a searing exploration of control, autonomy, and how far people will go to avoid being powerless. It asks: when all you’ve ever had is your ability to charm, seduce, or manipulate—what happens when that power fades? And when you’ve spent your life feeling unseen, how much are you willing to sacrifice to be noticed?
