Touch Me Not

“Why haven’t you ever asked me what this film is about? And why haven’t I ever told you?” — director Adina Pintilie rhetorically asks her character to hear one of the possible answers somewhat later: “I think because it’s inexplicable” The film where the borders between reality and fiction seem to be blurrier than ever, follows the emotional journeys of Laura, Tómas and Christian, where their craving for intimacy meets old habits, fears and taboos. Touch Me Not looks at how to love another without losing yourself.
