Simone is a young Black woman who spent years performing sex acts online to pay for law school. She has just passed a public defender exam, and her ambition is to defend women in cases of abuse.

In order to reawaken Simone's sexual desire, a friend sends her a link to a video where a Black woman practices sadomasochism. Gradually, Simone embarks on a journey of learning about BDSM practices, and her evolving sexual interests lead her into a world of violence and eroticism.
