      The book explores the evolution of mainstream cinema's portrayal of the marked body, particularly focusing on narratives from the late twentieth century that emphasize themes of subjection, endurance, and consent. It delves into the complex interplay between pain and pleasure, examining how these elements reflect broader societal implications and shifts in representation. Through this analysis, it sheds light on the changing perceptions of bodily autonomy and the experiences of domination within cinematic storytelling.
