I must admit to being slightly confused as to what I really feel about this. Overall, I think it works well as an insight into a generally peer-supportive community of sex workers, within which it explores a range of scenarios - some cliched, some not. However, I do wonder whether (as a man) I'm seeing a somewhat-sanitised and "male fantasy" version of this world that, in reality, is a lot harsher? I'm really not sure.
Therefore, taken at face value and believing that Manon / Aurore really is OK with this and all it implies, I think that the exploration of her romantic feelings as separate from her "business dealings" is quite well done - and the nightclub as pictured looks quite fun (certainly much more so than the dreary and unerotic example in Egoyan's dreadful "Exotica").
Worth a look.
