こんばんば!あやごんです。

今日は、先日の Vancouver Queer Film Festival で観たAMANTES(アマンテス)」についてお話ししたいと思います!

一言でまとめると、「カップルの数だけ、愛の形がある!」と感じさせてくれる映画でした。

この写真に写っている3人は、全員女性で、なんと3人で恋愛関係にあります。英語では「three + couple」でthrouple(スラプル)と言うそうです。映画の中では、彼女たちが“家族になろう”と奮闘する姿が描かれていて、本当に笑えるシーンが多く、観ていてとても楽しかったです。

もちろん、3人で恋愛関係にあることを「変だな」と思う人もいるかもしれません。

実際、私も最初は衝撃でした(笑)。

でも、ストーリーが進むにつれて見えてきたのは、親への紹介で居心地の悪さを感じたり

子どもを授かろうと医者に相談しても最初は理解してもらえなかったり…といった“レズビアンならではの悩み”でした。

それが2人から3人に広がっただけなんだ、と気づいたとき、腑に落ちた気がしました。

そして共感できる部分があったからこそ、いつの間にか3人を応援していました。

日本ではなかなか見かけない3人での恋愛関係。「恋愛の形ってここまで自由なんだ」と感じられたし、それをみんなで映画館で楽しめる雰囲気が、心地よかったです。

第三者には勝手にジャッジさせておけばいい!

3人がぶつかり合いながらも、懸命に前へ進んでいく姿は、本当に素敵でした!

Good evening! It’s Ayagon here.

Today, I want to share my thoughts on AMANTES, a film I watched at the Vancouver Queer Film Festival the other day.

If I had to sum it up in one sentence, it would be: There are as many forms of love as there are couples!

The three people in this photo are all women, and they’re in a relationship together. In English, this is referred to as a “throuple” (three + couple). The movie follows their struggles to become a family, and it was filled with hilarious moments that made it really enjoyable to watch.

Of course, some people might think that being in a relationship with three people is “weird.” Honestly, I was shocked at first too lol.

But as the story went on, what stood out to me were the challenges unique to lesbian couples—like the awkwardness of introducing a partner to parents, or being misunderstood when consulting a doctor about having a child. Then I realized: it’s just that those same issues had expanded from two people to three.

That’s when it really clicked for me. Because I could relate to some of their struggles, I found myself rooting for them before I even noticed.

In Japan, you don’t often see relationships involving three people. This film made me realize how free love can be, and I loved the atmosphere of watching it in a theater where everyone could laugh and enjoy it together.

Let outsiders judge as they please.

Seeing the three of them clash at times, yet still move forward with all their effort, was truly beautiful.
