Prior to its premiere at Sundance, Thyberg told
Variety she was interesting in holding a mirror to the way media images shape our identity.
“People consume so much pornography today and it’s something that we never discuss publicly or talk about amongst our friends,” she said. “It’s a huge part of our culture that exists in a world of shadows and that made me curious to understand more about it. I guess because it was taboo, that’s why I wanted to dig into it.”
