This wonderful, lovingly told story between oversexed influencer and tester of sex toys for the Art of Love company, Adam (Oliver Walker), and neglected and unassuming Eve (Alexandra Gilbreath), who writes successful test reports for the same company, is an ironic masterpiece in pink. Director (Pilippe Weibel) and cinematographer (Brian Dean Goff) set the contrast between fake lightness and ugly reality of social isolation the protagonists have to struggle with, splendidly parodied and pointed. Everything is fake, from the sex toys to the friendship between Adam and his boss, Hector (Kenneth Collard), as well as Eva's fuddy-duddy relationship with her dull husband (Jeremy Swift). As the film progresses, the sex toys move further into the background, and more and more it becomes about friendship, loyalty and love.
I like how subtly the script (Philippe Weibel and Brian Dean Goff) takes Eve out of her stuffy, disillusioned everyday life and lets her grow into a self-determined woman. Or nudges Adam out of the emphatic, out-of-touch digital world and into "real" life. Brilliantly portrayed by the two actors. Even in extremely bizarre scenes, we buy their actions. Like everything in the film, each character is a bit off-kilter in their ways. That's what makes them so adorable. Delightfully, Hector the corny boss-ass-boyfriend, or Adam's charming neighbor Claire (Jasmine Blackborrow), who takes the audience's hearts by storm with her absentmindedness and pronounced love of cacti.
The film is full of humor, little side jokes, witty dialogues, sweet punchlines. A touching, lovingly drawn social study, refreshingly blunt and quirky. Just as you would expect from British film.
