"This is when my understanding of intimacy coordination deepens. I know and respect both of my leads, Sofia and her co-star Alexandre Desjonqueres. I was never going to ask them to do anything they didn’t want to do. In this case, Nathalie is less a protector than a collaborator, allowing me to step back from the mechanics of sex and focus on performance and story. She handles the physical language so I can focus on the emotional one. Like having a stunt coordinator or cultural consultant, Nathalie’s presence allows for a division of labour I hadn’t realised I needed."
