Faithfully Yours blends sex and twists like classic thrillers, but its ending subverts gender roles.

Released in 2022 and directed by Andr van Duren, Faithfully Yours follows friends Isabel and Bodil as they embark on one of their supposed "girl's trips," which is a cover for their mutual marital infidelity. However, things begin to go awry when Isabel is seemingly killed, and Bodil is trapped in a web of her lies. Blending the sex and twists of the classic thrillers of the past, Faithfully Yours isn't necessarily the most inventive film, but it isn't without its deeper meaning.

Judge Bodil Backer (Bracha van Doesburgh) seemingly has it all: she’s a no-nonsense Judge and has a great home life with her doctor husband Milan (Nasrdin Dchar) and pre-teen son Ben (Damiano Incani).

At the start of director André van Duren’s Erotic Thriller, Bo is preparing for a girls weekend away with her best friend Isabel (Elise Schaap). They leave their husbands behind in Amsterdam, board a train for Bo’s family beach house in Belgium and outline plans for their weekend, which includes a burner phone, a large sum of money, and an expensive suite at a high-end hotel for Isabel.
