    A unique perspective.

    Only Love Matters, was truly inspiring, following the story of an intersex individual has never really been seen before, but highlights an incredibly overlooked scenario, building awareness on the matter. The narrative is very well structured and shows several stages of the protagonist's life, bad and good. Accompanied by beautiful cinematography and original songs, this film is truly a good watch.

    The film does extremely well at character development, from the early stages of childhood, all the way until late adulthood, marriage, and adoption. By the end, you feel a genuine connection with the subjects, which is very heart-warming.

    I do very much recommend this film to anyone, this film follows a story and issue which is rarely discussed but equally shows importance of how awareness can change our perceptions.

    A Movie with a beautiful Message

    The story circles around two women (an intersex mother and a daughter). It gives you entertainment, laugh and importantly a message and information we never came across regarding intersex bodies and their issues in an awesome way. A movie that can be watched among all group ages of family member. I watched the film in BFI Southbank cinema London. This movie delivers a brilliant informative message for society regarding the due respect and honour for intersex bodies. We all must exercise it and let them enjoy the life as God has bestowed upon them with their own built up and emotions.

    Regards Azizullah khan London UK.
