When you look back at your relationships, do you ever wonder why you had amazing sex with some lovers and not others? Or why you ended up with some partners long-term while others flitted in and out of your life? Since she was 16 years old living between Paris and Rome, director Chloé Barreau has been photographing, filming, and collecting mementos from every woman and man she has ever loved. This fascinating documentary unfolds through candid interviews with her exes, from fleeting one-night stands to enduring relationships.

Winner of the 2024 Grand Jury Award for Outstanding Documentary Feature at Frameline: San Francisco International LGBTQ+ Film Festival, Fragments of a Life Loved is a hypnotic film that explores the complexities of sex and relationships, offering unexpected insights into what it means to love and to be loved.
