Accompanied by WOFFF short And Yet by Lucretia Knapp, Lynne Yamamoto. An almost-silent film created in COVID isolation, this is a meditation on love and the inevitability of loss.

When Elena and Dovydas meet, they're immediately drawn to each other. But Elena is a very sensual, physical person, and Doyydas is not.

Struggling to find common ground in their approaches to sex, they realise they will have to experiment to try and create something new.

'A supremely confident piece of filmmaking that negotiates the tricky terrain of non-typical sexualities with sensitivity, humour and a refreshing lightness of touch' - Wendy Ide, Screen International
