Written by the legendary Axel Braun and helmed by his longtime collaborator Claudia Ross in her directing debut, The Hunger follows the story of Lauren, a beautiful young woman who seemingly has it all. Yet, despite being in a happy marriage, Lauren struggles with a compulsive sexual desire she calls The Hunger, a craving which leads her to constantly seek sexual encounters with complete strangers.
