This would indeed be admirable, were it not for the shallow, pseudo-intellectual way in which the film approaches its subject, its characters, and by implication, its audience.

Touch Me Not is definitely abstract and intellectualized ... but so much of the film left me cold, even bored.

It's not that every film has to achieve some grand epiphany, but Touch Me Not is not nearly as satisfying as the primal act it's obsessed with.

Globe and Mail
"Touch Me Not," is fairly mesmerizing as a mindful curio that blends performance and honesty, artifice and openness, to achieve a kind of inviting clarity about the healing power of bodily contact.

It tries to be provocative, but it ultimately is just meaningless and rather meandering.

The problem with Pintilie's adaptation is that there is a level of ingenuity that reflects in how topics about sexuality portrayed in the film. [Full Review in Spanish]

More successful in its analytical and clinical researching aims than it is as a work of art, [but] there's little denying that Piatilie has crafted something important.

Product Description:
Romanian director Adina Pintilie's debut feature film is a quasi-documentary that examines the nature of physical intimacy and interrogates mainstream beauty ideals. It follows the personal journeys of Laura (a sexually inhibited woman), Tómas (a man with alopecia universalis), and Christian (a man with spinal muscular atrophy) as they each attempt to overcome the barriers that stand in the way of them establishing a mutually satisfying sexual relationship with another person.
