My Partners

About This Movie

My Partners dives deep into the complexities of modern relationships through the lens of three couples from Estonia and Germany. It’s not just about polyamory; it's about wrestling with one's own ego, the push and pull of desire, and the insecurities that come with exploring love beyond traditional bounds. The pacing feels almost meditative, with the filmmaker Eva Kübar taking her time to let moments breathe, letting us sit with the raw emotions that surface. The guidance from various mentors, including psychologists and shamans, adds an interesting layer, making the exploration feel less like a journey and more like a shared experience. I found the atmosphere rich and reflective, a bit uncomfortable at times, which is what makes it stand out in the documentary space.
