Three strangers immersed in the world of camming come together to discuss its impact on young people. But their views are radically different. While one sees it as a respectable trade full of dedicated and liberated women, another sees it as a direct exploitation of the male libido.

What they don’t know is that they all have one person in common – and she’s watching the conversation from the next room.
