Acsexybility vividly tells the stories of disabled people around their sexualities. Through conversations between the protagonists and the director, the film covers topics like flirting, kissing, dating, masturbation, ableism and, of course, sex. With their open narration, the narrators break through the idea of disabled people as being asexual, innocent and desire-less.

Different forms of encounters, eroticism and togetherness are created with artistic play sequences. At the same time, the complexity and challenges of leading a fulfilling sex life in an ableist society are highlighted. Gonçalves shines a spotlight on an underrepresented community and allows these important conversations to be heard and seen.
