Synopsis
To make love, what is it ? At the meeting of Christine and Pierre, their testimony reveals a way of making love that arises from the need of each one to feel their body vibrate, exist, but also valued and socially integrated. It is the first time that Pierre feels his body differently than a sick body. It is the first time he feels his body with pleasure. Christine, now, makes love as a claim. Is it fair for a person to be sexually and emotionally rejected because of her physical appearance and disability? Finally, to make love, is it a right?
Director' s comments
Not that much aware of what was sexual accompaniment and how it was considered legally, we decided to improve our knowledge through the making of a documentary. We met the colorful personality of Christine who is part of the APPAS and who has showed us the other face of love, sensuality and involvement. The more we were learning about how sexual accompaniment can empower disabled people, the less we understand why it is still considered as illegal.
