Duffy, who recently revealed that she was kidnapped and raped, wrote an open letter demanding Netflix take down the controversial movie 365 Days.
Celebs Fight Back on Social Media
The erotic drama, which stars Michele Morrone and Anna-Maria Sieklucka, premiered on Netflix in June after initially being released in Poland. It has since maintained a spot in the streaming service’s top 10, at one point reaching No. 1, thanks in part to TikTok users who have continued to plug the film.
In her open letter to Netflix CEO Reed Hastings, the “Mercy” singer, 36, wrote that 365 Days “glamorizes the brutal reality of sex trafficking, kidnapping and rape.”
The movie, which is based on Polish author Blanka Lipińska’s book 365 Dni, follows a Sicilian gangster named Massimo Torricelli (Morrone) who tracks down a Polish woman he met five years prior, Laura Biel (Sieklucka), and holds her prisoner. He gives her 365 days to fall in love with him, tempting her with his money and luxurious lifestyle, and promises to set her free at the end of the year if she does not. Throughout the film, the characters engage in increasingly sadomasochistic sex at Massimo’s mansion, aboard his yacht and at other locations.
