Synopsis
The Girlfriend Experience (2016) is a Starz drama you can watch online on iFILM — a cold, stripped-down series loosely spun off from Steven Soderbergh's film. Christine Reade, a law student interning at a top Chicago firm, starts working as a high-end escort, treating it as a transaction rather than a fall.
Riley Keough plays a woman who keeps two lives sealed off from each other: case files and corporate ambition by day, wealthy clients by night who pay less for sex than for the illusion of intimacy. For a while she runs both with surgical control. Then one client pushes past the arrangement, the line between performance and real feeling thins out, and the composure she prized starts to crack.
Creators Lodge Kerrigan and Amy Seimetz shoot all 13 first-season episodes almost clinically — long silences, glass interiors, barely any score. The show isn't about glamour; it's about power and desire turned into a priced commodity. Quiet, adult, and built for viewers who want a restrained psychological piece with no melodrama. Stream The Girlfriend Experience online on iFILM.
