Because Brandon can't handle close relationships. He has no friends or family. In addition, he has an insatiable need for sex. An eternal pursuit of sexual intoxication and satisfaction. Which may not be a problem for a modern man in New York, where access to casual sex is huge.

Into Brandon's life storms his sister Sissy. She has a strong need for care and consideration. Can she find it with Brandon? After all, they are family, and family must take care of each other.

Michael Fassbender is brilliant in the role of the sex addict Brandon and won the prize for best actor in Venice. He is a hot candidate for an Oscar. Carey Mulligan also shines in the role of her sister Sissy.
