00:06drama starring Alexander Skarsgård and Harry Melling, directed by British filmmaker Harry
00:12Lytton.
00:13The film marks his feature debut following his BAFTA-nominated short, Bren Boys.
00:19Pillion centers around Colin, played by Melling, a shy and unassuming man whose life takes

00:36lifestyle he never imagined.
00:38As Colin navigates his new role as Ray's submissive, he begins to question if this
00:42intense relationship is his true calling or just another form of restriction.
00:48Produced by Element Pictures, the film is based on the novel Box Hill by Adam Mars Jones,
00:53which explores the themes of identity, relationships, and self-discovery.
00:59Lytton's screenplay was developed with support from BBC Film and British Film Institute,
01:03adding depth to the story's unique narrative.
