The Pleasure is Mine
Passionately in love and eager to live together as a couple, Rita and Mateo move out of the city and take refuge in the apparent tranquility of Mateo’s deceased father’s country house. Like every new relationship, it is all sex and fun in the beginning until Rita’s desire to become a mother, Mateo’s fear of commitment.
VIBE
This film feels like a quiet, intimate exploration of a relationship's early days. It's a vulnerable, often tense, look at the push and pull between desire and commitment, set against a backdrop of domesticity.
