Touch Me Not

Adina Pintilie’s debut feature Touch Me Not is a brave and raw look at bodies, intimacy, and empathy, exploring the private lives and sexual desires of four people with an approach that blurs the line between fiction and documentary.

Moving seamlessly between erotic clubs and closed-door reflections, Touch Me Not is a self- assured journey into the intimate lives of Laura, Tómas, Christian, and Grit. Opening windows into a world of those who dare to break with social conventions and access the hidden aspects of their sexuality, the lm revels in a space where anyone — no matter the obstacle — has the possibility of touching their inner rebel. Winner of the Berlinale’s Golden Bear and Best First Feature, Touch Me Not is an exhilarating plunge into the endless possibilities of the human body and mind. – Dimitri Eipides, Toronto International Film Festival
