X/y (2014)

"X/Y" is an indie drama that untangles modern relationships through overlapping storylines of jealousy, desire, and self-discovery. The ensemble cast leans into rawer, more intimate territory than typical genre fare. America Ferrera anchors part of that ensemble, stepping well outside her sitcom-friendly image. Amber Tamblyn brings her own unguarded edge to the mix. Sue Jean Kim rounds out the trio with a performance that matches the film's intimate tone. The archive holds 4 scenes pulled from their work here, spanning nude and sex scenes that show a side of these actresses rarely seen elsewhere. Fans hunting for their most exposed, vulnerable screen work will find this hub worth exploring.
