Three Headed Beast

Nina and Peter, both bisexual, have had an open relationship for almost a decade. Their nonmonogamous arrangement allows them to freely explore outside connections in an honest and mutually beneficial way. But while Nina’s sexual encounters are no strings attached, Peter’s relationship with regular lover Alex appears to deepen, a development Nina quickly notices. As trust and transparency give way to jealousy and insecurity, the pair begin to question the future of their relationship.

Fittingly for a film where characters struggle to communicate effectively, this bracingly unconventional relationship drama unfolds almost entirely without dialogue. Instead, directors Fernando Andrés and Tyler Rugh rely on non-verbal details to convey the unspoken feelings of the characters. Experimental yet still accessible, this is one of the most distinctive queer films in recent memory.
