Based on the sensational international best-seller One Hundred Strokes of the Brush Before Bed, Melissa P. is a steamy tale of raw emotions and frank sexuality. Lonely, neglected by her parents, and feeling the loss of her beloved grandmother (Geraldine Chaplin), fourteen-year-old Melissa (Maria Valverde) turns to sex as an outlet of expression. Propelling herself into impossibly risky sexual liaisons, the details of which she records in her diary, this modern-day Lolita suddenly and dangerously turns into a bold seductress. By turns erotic and harrowing, Melissa P.'s disturbing look into a teenage girl's secret life pushes the envelope of human desires that makes it required viewing for fans of films like The Dreamers and Lolita.
