Former glamour model Alex Sim-Wise helps people sell sexy content on the subscription website OnlyFans. When OnlyFans controversially announces a plan to ban adult content, turning the online sex work industry upside down, can Alex and her protégés fight to keep their livelihoods?

Alex Sim-Wise is a superstar glamour model of the 2000s. She now makes £10,000 a month as a content creator on subscription-based platform OnlyFans, where anyone can make money by posting content they think others will pay to see. Sex workers and adult performers have used it to make millions - and now, legions of everyday people are curious about doing the same.

Pitching herself as “the one-woman Trinny and Susannah for slags,” Alex has set up a consultancy helping ordinary people emulate her success. People like Emily – who’s just quit her steady customer service job to become a full-time online sex worker; Will – who shoots gay fetish content in his spare time; and Zoe – a sales worker with distinctive feet, who’s curious to see if they could make her some extra cash. Beguiled and intrigued by the prospect of making a fortune from online sex work, all three are navigating different aspects of the reality of this tough, precarious world. But when OnlyFans announces - without warning - its intention to ban adult content, sending a shockwave through the sex work industry, Alex and her clients are left wondering: will they be able to hang on to their livelihoods?
