9/10
Sensitive, Honest, Intimate, Sexual
8 April 2018
Those who watch this film for a bit of "soft porn" miss the point. The nude scenes of lovemaking are amazingly well done, moving, and strikingly realistic. They capture the kind of "madly, badly" in love passion that those fortunate enough to have experience in life will appreciate. Likewise, anyone seeing this as a "Lesbian" film, also misses the point, though that is an important part of the story line--with Natalie Krill's character coming out and cautiously and painfully discovering her sexuality. But more than sex, or lesbianism, or any other social commentary this is a film about how two people can fall madly and suddenly in love for reasons the heart and body only know. I think this is one of the finest films covering these complex and difficult themes I have ever seen. The photography is stunning.
