The soft, red glow of a computer screen illuminates a grungy New York apartment. Jack (Peter Vack) furiously jerks off as San-Francisco camgirl Scarlet (a magnetic Julia Fox) unzips a black leather jumpsuit. She then exposes herself, then sits back, cigarette in hand; Her relaxed indifference is a central feature of her appeal. Jack gambles online during the day and spends his winnings on Scarlet at night. As their conversations deepen and their relationship progresses beyond just customer and client, however, Jack wants to meet. Separated by middle America, Scarlet insists on the impossibility of their meeting until Jack spots her on a rainy street in New York’s Chinatown. Is Jack’s obsession twisting his perception, and does Scarlet have a reason to lie? (Fantasia International Film Festival)

PVT CHAT is like the dissertation work of a New York Film Academy student who is not afraid to go a bit over the edge. There are plenty of penises and semen in this film about the manipulation of a young submissive by an internet dominatrix. The theme itself strives to create controversy through the open approach to it. However, the immaturity, naïve attempt at a thriller-style plot and mainly the empty dialogue are rather more evidence of the filmmaker’s frustration with the absence of a meaningful topic that he would have shot with real interest and enthusiasm. The scene of a long and spasmodic (as if friendly) fight at an art exhibition only confirms this.
