ACSEXYBILITY ’25

ACSEXYBILITY is a documentary that tells stories about the sexuality of people with disabilities. Through the characters‘ conversation with the director, the film talks about flirting, kissing, dating, masturbation, ableism and, of course, sex. Its greatest strength is precisely hearing from people with disabilities things that society does not expect them to say and do. We want to change the idea that they are asexual, angelic, special and even devoid of desires. We fuck and we fuck well, they say.
