Diary of a Sex Addict

Drama93 min

A restaurant owner keeps one life visible and another hidden, as compulsive affairs and mounting deception collide with his marriage, his family, and the possibility of therapy. The story centers on a man whose private behavior is no longer separate from the rest of his life, folding sex, secrecy, and confession into the same domestic orbit. Rosanna Arquette and Nastassja Kinski are among the key faces around him, with Michael Des Barres in the ensemble as the fallout spreads through home and work. An early-2000s American indie drama, it leans into intimate, adult subject matter and the strain of a double life.
