Drama • Thriller • Romance

In Pillion, the lines between desire, power, and vulnerability are tested in a haunting exploration of control, dependency, and the price of surrender. Colin (Harry Melling), a withdrawn and introspective man, is living a life devoid of certainty. He keeps his distance from others, trapped in a world where the only thing that feels constant is his own unease. But when he meets Ray (Alexander Skarsgård), a charismatic, dominant figure whose presence seems to command everything around him, Colin is drawn into a world he never expected.

Ray is everything Colin isn’t—confident, intense, and dangerously magnetic. His dominance is palpable, yet there is an enigmatic quality to him that pulls Colin deeper. At first, Colin’s attraction to Ray is a quiet fascination, a curiosity about this man who seems to control every situation with effortless ease. But what starts as an attraction soon becomes an addiction—an obsession with the pull of Ray’s influence, and an unraveling of Colin’s own identity.

The bond between them is not simple. It’s an intricate dance of control, desire, and vulnerability. As the relationship deepens, Colin finds himself torn between the thrill of surrendering to Ray’s power and the fear of losing himself in the process. The more he gives, the more Ray demands, and soon the lines between what is a choice and what is coercion blur.

Pillion dives into the emotional intensity of dependence—the psychological toll of a relationship that feeds on imbalance. It’s about the unspoken bargain struck when one person is willing to give everything and the other is ready to take it all. As Colin grapples with his own sense of self-worth and identity, he begins to wonder if he’s giving himself to someone who might own more of him than he ever intended.

With moments of piercing vulnerability and tension, Pillion challenges its characters—and its audience—to confront what it truly means to be in control, to give oneself over to another, and to reckon with the consequences of letting someone else define who you are.

Dark, provocative, and emotionally intense, Pillion is a story about the cost of surrendering to someone else’s will, and the heart-wrenching journey of trying to reclaim yourself once you’ve lost more than you realized.
