Do you love me?

Adam Leech (USA, 2006, video, 10:09)

In Do You Love Me?, Adam Leech places the question of attachment and vulnerability quite bluntly on the table, inviting subjects (lovers, friends, strangers) to respond to the decisive question in their own terms. Filmed in close‑up and often in situational encounters, the work captures a range of emotional reactions: hesitation, laughter, earnestness, discomfort, and the subtle but noticeable shifts that arise when someone is pressured to articulate something so deeply personal. The film doesn’t construct a clear progressive narrative, but rather records the affective rhythms and relational breaks that occur when desire, uncertainty, and self‑presentation collide. Through its emphasis on direct address and unguarded response, Do You Love Me? foregrounds the space between speaking and being heard, and again, between declaration and reception, showing how intimacy can be invoked in language even when its fulfillment remains unresolved.
