COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Loved it!
submitted by Jen Chapin-Smith on August 22, 2012, 12:10pm
I loved this independent Canadian film about lesbians and transwomen working to live in a homophobic society. I highly recommend this movie, although some parts are a bit scary.
Parental warning: this movie contains love scenes, both lesbian and heterosexual.
Good exposure to LGBTQ culture submitted by Xris on December 28, 2019, 6:16pm Being a Canadian film, I wonder if that's why the sex scenes are more graphic than we'd see in the states, usually. Nice to see acceptance from some family, and to see lesbian and transgender people's lives portrayed.
