A masterful work of psychosexual intensity, the newest film from celebrated filmmaker Ira Sachs (The Delta, Love is Strange, Keep the Lights On) offers one of the director’s most cutting variations on desire and intimacy.

Co-written by author and longtime collaborator Mauricio Zacharias, Passages follows Tomas (Franz Rogowski), a mercurial German filmmaker living in Paris whose commitment to his husband, Martin (Ben Whishaw), falls short when he pursues a dalliance with a young female school teacher named Agathe (Adele Exarchopoulos).

Martin begins his own affair soon after, while Tomas swings between both relationships and unleashes a reckless succession of breakups and makeups.

With fearless performances from Rogowski, Whishaw and Exarchopoulos, Sachs crafts a cinematic rarity in which the white-hot pleasures and compulsions of a particularly dysfunctional amour fou are kept on par with ferocious honesty.
