“The taut, suspenseful film, which features outstanding performances by June Ann and Rob Gadling, has been hailed by reviewers for its strong plot, keen use of symbolism and ambitious storytelling,” said a rep.

It took home the award for "Best Erotic Feature Film of the Year" at the Dreamachine International Film Festival — Annual Edition, and captured "Best Adult for Erotic Short Film" at the International Shorts festival.
“I endeavor to create films which are augmented by the sexually explicit material within them, but which also stand up as great stories, regardless of how explicit the sex scenes might be,” Rowntree said. “Thanks in large part to the amazing performances turned in by June Ann and Rob, 'Mirror Game' definitely reached that goal.”
The R-rated version of "Mirror Game" can be found on Amazon Prime; the original version is available through Sssh.com.
