Prize of the Ecumenical Jury, Berlin 2024 (Panorama)

Sex is a film about sex and gender, though no sex is shown. The filmmakers demonstrate how honesty and intimacy are vital to human relationships. Through slow pacing and humorous conversations the film focuses our attention on the nuances of our social constructions of gender and sex, and more importantly, of love. One protagonist talks about people who make the world smaller and those who make it larger. The movie "Sex" definitely makes it larger. (Photo: © Motlys)
