Elegant ensemble piece blends sensual storytelling, intrigue & character-driven exploration in Dorcel’s latest cinematic release
Chicago – Dorcel is pleased to announce the release of Maison Close, a visually rich new feature from acclaimed director Casey Calvert starring Lily Bell alongside Lulu Chu, Little Puck, Charlie Forde, Millie Morgan, Ryan Driller, Nathan Bronson, Michael Vegas, Mickey Mod, Derek Kage, Leo Vice, Axel Haze, and Mandi Slade. The title is now streaming on DorcelVision.com and major VOD platforms, with a DVD street date forthcoming domestically through Pulse Distribution.
Set within the refined yet secretive world of an exclusive, tightly run brothel known as the “Glass House,” Maison Close follows a series of interconnected stories exploring desire, identity, and personal discovery. As a journalist embeds herself within the house to uncover its inner workings, she becomes entangled in the lives of its residents and clientele—from structured relationships and loyal regulars to couples seeking new experiences. As one of the house’s most sought-after women prepares to move on to a new chapter in her life, the lines between observation and participation begin to blur, leading to unexpected revelations and emotional growth.
With Calvert’s signature focus on narrative depth and atmosphere, Maison Close delivers a polished, cinematic experience that highlights character, connection, and the complexities of modern intimacy. The film pairs Dorcel’s high-end production values with a sophisticated, story-first approach that elevates each performance.
“Maison Close is about curiosity, agency, and the many ways people seek connection,” said a Dorcel representative. “Casey Calvert brings nuance and visual elegance to a story that is both intimate and expansive, anchored by a standout performance from Lily Bell.”
The release of Maison Close arrives at a moment of growing mainstream visibility for Lily Bell, who also stars in the new general release science fiction thriller Prompt. Directed by indie veteran Charles Band, the feature debuted on major streaming platforms April 17.
