Touch Me Not Photo: © Manekino Film, Rohfilm, Pink, Agitprop, Les Films de l'Etranger Touch Me Not has won the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival. The Romanian drama by Adina Pintilie, which takes a very personal approach to issues of intimacy, was a controversial dark horse in the line-up which included the likes of Gus Van Sant's Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far On Foot, David and Nathan Zellner's Damsel - both of which had already played at Sundance - and the critically touted Dovlatov, directed by Aleksey German. The Russian film did take home a Silver Bear for Elena Okopnaya for artistic contribution and has sold to Netflix. Touch Me Not was also named Best First Feature, while Wes Anderson won the Silver Bear for best director for his animation Isle Of Dogs.
