Laura cannot bear to be touched and recoils whenever anyone catches hold of her or takes her hand. She goes to see a therapist, and orders a male prostitute, but her body is still like an armour. In a loose succession of scenes, we follow other people in search of intimacy. Christian, who has to live with many physical impairments, talks candidly about what turns him on, what turns him off and his love life with his long-standing girlfriend. The couple participate in a workshop on body awareness attended by people of all ages, with and without disabilities, such as Tudor. His bald head makes him seem strangely vulnerable and he has yet to discover and accept the manifold forms of his desire. (Berlinale)

A documentary film that is almost a film with acting and a documentary reconstruction about people who, due to various forms of mental blocks, are unable to experience intimacy, sexuality, and essentially even ordinary physical touching, without taking part in therapeutic sessions and receiving "professional" advice (psychotherapists, prostitutes or transvestites). The whole film is a terribly superficial, two-hour-long therapy session with the message that in the world of sexuality there is nothing like a deviance, fetish or deviation from the standard; in short that everything should be considered normal, including night swing/BDSM clubs. However, these clubs are also counterproductively filmed terribly naively and in a clichéd way so that they seem repulsive in the first place. The supremely artistically shot film full of naked bodies deals with the emotional path of its characters to inner openness, but everything that is heard from them has zero informative value, because everyone just deals with their own problems and feelings, but their self-reflection is not subjected to any meaningful analysis.
