When dancer Elena meets sign language interpreter Dovydas their instant connection bodes well for a romantic relationship. But when Doyvdas reveals he’s asexual, their dynamic changes as both try to find a way to be together while fulfilling their respective needs. From Sundance-winning director Marija Kavtaradze comes a modern love story about two people exploring how to build their own kind of intimacy.
“A supremely confident piece of filmmaking that negotiates the tricky terrain of non-typical sexualities with sensitivity, humour and a refreshing lightness of touch” - Screen International
“A lush and sensual drama that evokes the rush of affection and excitement and delves into what embodied love means. Visually grainy, as if you can reach out and feel the film stock, with well-rounded characters, it’s stirring and moving at every turn” - Vox
