But as always, KINK documents the fearless exploration of life beyond the sexual norms with a focus on adventure and change. The series subjects a pain slut, a fledgling dominatrix, and several players in the BDSM scene - all feel a deep and heartfelt need to transform themselves and push the boundaries in their personal lives. The kinky scene in this small coastal city has a friendly feel that mirrors the spirit of the community in which our subjects live, and presents an interesting picture of adventurous spirits who also reflect a culture that honors tradition, sincerity and simple values.

Season 4 takes up the KINK mantle and focuses on change whether it be female to male, dominatrix to housewife the program's subjects all feel a deep heart-felt need to transform their lives. While all of the subjects are involved in serious relationships, they are curious to explore the kinky life while trying to hold on to their beloved partners. The trick of managing both creates an added element of tension, conflict and complexity.

Season 1 opens a window onto a world of kinky sexual behavior, exploring sadomasochism, cross-dressing, gender switching, and fetishism, all wrapped up in the very basic pursuit of love and belonging. These aren't actors performing sexual fantasies, these are real people fully revealed through intimate interviews, at work, at home, out in the world and in the throes of love games. Our subjects in Season 1 are searching for ways to be true to themselves and their needs, undaunted by the prejudices of society.

More journeys of self-discovery and sexual freedom with an apprentice dominatrix and a whole stable of male and female submissives; play-piercing and scarification; open relationships with twosomes, threesomes and moresomes; sex in plastic sheeting with duct tape; transsexual body modifications and a spectacular suspension at The Funhouse Club where the characters of Season 3 gather. The season closes with all of the subjects meeting, some for the first time, at a big fetish party, where they each perform their own kinky specialty.
