Nice film about ace and thought-provoking as well

As an aroace myself, it is always delightful to see more producers, directors, and writers start to dive into the asexual cohort and increase the visibility of our group of people.The film is very slow-paced, effusive, and relaxing. The two protagonists are likeable and authentic, making the watching experience quite entertaining. On top of that, the soundtrack is spot-on. The guy, an asexual character, is a nearly perfect example of ace, at least as the official definition suggests, while the female protagonist is very sexually active, so the clash of the two in a romantic relationship is basically about the ever-lasting topic: Are sex and love inseparable? Although the story and the conflicts between the two are pretty predictable-if you're also ace you know the drill-the film itself is not a letdown for its smoothness and completeness. Nevertheless, I wish the film could dig deeper into the asexual character's personal struggles and his history.

Ways of love

If you have had or have a love with someone who is asexual or erotophobic, it is a great movie to share.I wish I could have seen it at the beginning of the relationship, it helps a lot to understand what feelings and thoughts are going through both parties.Dovydas played by Kestutis Cicena and Elena played by Greta Grineviciute do a great job.Marija Kavtaradze tells a story that is unconventional in everyday life and complex to understand for the rest if you have not experienced or lived it.I have missed some good moments during the film to visualize the true, pure and real love they experience. But overall good script.

Movie about others and also about yourself

A great acting duo. The movie about others and also about yourself. Slow and fast, it makes you think about the questions left behind. Only after the end of the movie I finally understood why the movie started like that. Pros: realistic, lively, visually beautiful, good soundtrack, the movie allows you to see a different relationship with different points of view and their choices. Small cons: details, maybe more dialogues, were sometimes too artificial (for example, talking with other actors).I have seen both movies from this great director. This one is different and has much more power in small things.
