“Because of their line of work, how they view relationships is skewed,” utters Dustin Clare concerning the sex workers in upmarket neighbourhoods in Melbourne. In an attempt to flesh out his character Sean of the steamy drama Satisfaction, Clare spends time talking to them.
He emphasizes on their bravado and confidence in their sexuality. The series seems to surely play on the fantasies of men, or rather both genders for some. This focus on the fantasy aspect is demonstrated by the obvious lion’s share of storylines involving the motif of Sean and Nat’s relationship.
Clare states that the nudity and hard sex scenes are not in any way a disservice. Enough already has been pictured concerning the drugs, corruption and crime side of the equation. Clare emphasizes on the safe working enviroment and his ability to make the people that he works with feel comfortable, especially the women. He describes with a good-hearted, creative flare concerning the director-actor relationship that makes possible this debauchee flick. He utters, “The director has to understand how he wants us to cover it and we have to come up with … a dance really, that works with the coverage.”
Satisfaction, definitely the steamy drama to recommend to males whose sentiments lead them to discover, or rather live in the world of a gigolo.
