What is Don't Touch Me?

Don't Touch Me focuses on Jay. While navigating their first relationship, Jay discovers that the typical model of dating isn't really for them. Jay discovers that they are demisexual. Demisexuality is an orientation that describes a person who does not feel sexual attraction until they are deeply emotionally connected to a person. This discovery prompts Jay to create their own model for falling in love.

Why does this film matter?

In creating this film, we want to represent a new kind of love story that queer-identifying people may explore in their own romantic journey. Many popular love stories we see today follow a similar model of sex first, and then love. But what does modern love look like when it is reversed?  Can love without the promise of sex exist, or even flourish? 

This film is not a universal tale by any means; it is not meant to speak to the masses. It is meant to speak to those who want to see a queer person of color onscreen. It is meant to speak to those who identify as demisexual, or demi gray. By supporting this film you will be supporting queer film, and you will be supporting stories about queer people of color.
