Bound (bra: Ligadas pelo Desejo; prt: Bound - Sem Limites) é um filme estadunidense de 1996 dos gêneros crime e suspense dirigido pelas irmãs Wachowski em sua estréia na direção de longas-metragens. O filme segue Violet, uma sedutora mulher que deseja escapar de seu relacionamento com seu namorado mafioso Ceasar, tendo um caso amoroso com a ex-presidiária Corky; as duas mulheres traçam um plano para roubar dois milhões de dólares em dinheiro de Ceasar, quantia esta oriunda da própria máfia. Bound conta com Jennifer Tilly, Gina Gershon e Joe Pantoliano nos papéis principais. Foi o primeiro filme dirigido pelas irmãs Wachowskis, a qual se inspiraram em Billy Wilder para contar uma história ao estilo noir cheia de sexo e violência. Financiado por Dino De Laurentiis, o longa foi feito com um orçamento apertado. Os diretores inicialmente lutaram para escalar as personagens lésbicas de Violet e Corky antes de garantir Tilly e Gershon no elenco; para coreografar as cenas de sexo entre as duas, os diretores contrataram a educadora sexual Susie Bright, que também fez uma aparição no filme. Bound recebeu críticas positivas dos críticos de cinema que elogiaram o humor e o estilo dos diretores, bem como o retrato realista de um relacionamento lésbico em um filme convencional. Já os contestadores do filme consideraram sua trama superficial e criticaram sua "violência excessiva".
