Departures

When Benji meets Jake at an airport, all he expects is a steamy night together. But when Benji falls for Jake, he embarks on a romantic journey that is fraught with complex power dynamics. When the two men decide to only see each other once a month in an apartment in Amsterdam, Benji hopes the arrangement could lead to the relationship he's been longing for. But as time goes on, Benji becomes more curious about the reason for their infrequent meetings. Through retrospection, Departures is a sexy, darkly comedic and emotionally charged film that shows the beauty, addictiveness and pitfalls of what it's like to desperately love someone who may or may not love you back.
