It’s hard to make a comedy about odd sexuality without falling into easy vulgarity or conventional gags. Spanish director Paco León does relatively well with Kiki, Love to Love. Mainly, because he doesn’t try for comedy at any price: the story revolves around the usual and unavoidable issues that couples deal with (miscommunication, resentment, monotony). But especially because the film offers something much sweeter thanks to a beautiful cast of clueless characters played by excellent actors. The story of the silk fetishist (the fabulous Alexandra Jiménez) is certainly the most quietly powerful, both hilarious and touching.
