🎬 Good Kisser

Jenna and Kate have been dating for two years, but their relationship has hit a stale plateau. To reignite their passion and add excitement, Kate convinces a hesitant Jenna to open up their relationship for a sensual three-way weekend encounter with Mia, an alluring, sophisticated woman. As the three women gather at Mia's stylish home, wine flows and sparks fly, but Jenna quickly senses that Kate and Mia already share an unsettling familiarity. What was supposed to be a fun, consensual experiment turns into a tense evening of hidden secrets, shifting dynamic loyalties, and unexpected emotional epiphanies as Jenna realizes she might be the odd one out.
