SLEEPING BEAUTY Starring Emily Browning Available on VOD

SLEEPING BEAUTY, the bold and provocative directorial debut from Julia Leigh, is now available to watch on SundanceNow.com and cable VOD via Comcast, Cox, Cablevision, Time Warner, and Bright House before it is released in theaters. Watch the coolly shocking retelling of the classic myth that poses its heroine as a rarified sex-worker, confronting ideas of feminine sexuality with bravado and precision.

Death-haunted, quietly reckless, Lucy (Emily Browning) is a young university student who takes a job as a Sleeping Beauty. In her chamber, old men seek an erotic experience that requires Lucy's absolute submission. This unsettling task starts to bleed into Lucy's daily life and she develops an increasing need to know what happens to her when she is asleep. With a fearless performance by Browning, Leigh creates a bold cinematic vision; one where Lucy, both in her clandestine sexual adventures and in her mundane daily existence, lives with the same unflinching and brutal honesty.
