Sensual

Synopsis

The film explores the sexual awakening and coming-of-age journey of a young woman named Niña. Growing up in a small town with her repressed mother, Turing, and her permissive, aging grandmother, Senyang, Niña begins to explore her sexuality. This includes both a lesbian relationship with her classmate Elsa and a subsequent charged, romantic tension with a newly arrived man named Ariel.
