Tu man nieko neprimeni

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.

"Slow" presents us a deep dive into how asexuals see relationships with non-asexuals and also with themselves. It also asks interesting questions not only about asexuality, but about romantic and sexual relationships in general. One of the main themes of this film is showing how difficult yet significant it is to know what we need in such relationships and how to communicate that with your partner. That is exactly why I think "Slow" deserves our attention, because it shows important aspects of modern relationships - that we haven't seen portrayed in cinema before (asexuality) - in a beautiful and intimate matter and how loving someone is sometimes not enough. I must also highlight the acting performances of the two protagonists, that really carry us through this story gorgeously.

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.

Approaching "Slow" or "Tu man nieko neprimeni" as a Lithuanian, I had hoped for a step forward in our film industry. Regrettably, this film succumbs to the same issues that often plague Lithuanian cinema: protracted scenes that contribute little to the narrative and an overemphasis on mundane everyday life moments. This film could have easily shed a significant portion of its runtime and still conveyed its intended message effectively.

While the film's underlying theme of asexuality held promise, it often deviates off course with superfluous dance sequences, peculiar moments like the main character Dovydas eating a sandwich or a McDonald's burger for no apparent reason, and awkward English interjections in Lithuanian dialogue. These numerous diversions detract from the film's primary theme and overall potential.

Admittedly, there were some commendable moments, such as the endearing portrayal of the two main characters engaging in the seemingly mundane task of hanging laundry. For me, this touching scene stands out amid the film's shortcomings. Nonetheless, these fleeting highlights fail to outweigh the movie's overall drawbacks.

I remain hopeful that Lithuanian cinema will rise above its stagnation and embrace more concise and impactful storytelling. However, "Slow" is a disappointing step in the wrong direction.

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.
