Synopsis

The Girlfriend Experience is a kind of multi-episode remake of the 2008 film of the same name by Stephen Soderbergh, the one where Sasha Gray played the leading role. Soderbergh became the producer of the TV-series, and Lodge Kerrigan and Amy Seimetz took over the roles of showrunners. They were responsible for the American version of The Killing.

The Girlfriend Experience explores the world beyond the film. If the film showed the life of Manhattan during the era of presidential elections and the economic crisis, the heroine of the TV-series is looking at how the world has changed, at large amounts of money, exhausted people, and stylish interiors that are existing in it.

After the success of the first season, The Girlfriend Experience was turned into an anthology.

The new episodes were dedicated to stories of two escort workers at once, not related to each other in any way. Their episodes were shown one after another…
