 The Girl

A film noir in the tradition of Bound.

Set in Paris, The Girl follows the spiraling affair between two women: the film's narrator -- a beautiful painter (Agathe de la Boulaye, Jefferson in Paris) -- and a stunning cabaret singer who she calls The Girl (Claire Keim, Marriages, Ripper: Letter from Hell).

On their first night together, The Girl insists it will only be this one time. However, the two are soon involved in an ongoing relationship. While their passion for each other is consuming, a relationship from the past threatens to tear them apart.

 The Truth About Jane

Based on a true story.

Jane's mom (Stockard Channing, West Wing, Grease) assumes her popular daughter is just like every other fifteen-year old girl. Then Jane meets Taylor and falls madly in love with her. Suddenly, everyone is trying to figure out how to cope with the realization that Jane is a lesbian. Her classmates are having trouble treating her like a human being, and her mom refuses to have anything to do with Jane's "experiment." The trouble is, this is not just a phase. Jane knows she is gay. If her mom can't or won't accept that fact, their relationship could be broken forever.

Contemplating your sexuality...?

Jessica is a sensitive but neurotic New York journalist who's fed up with the dating life. One day, she happens to read an intriguing personal ad, but it's in the "women seeking women" section.

 Treading Water: A Documentary
Treading Water is a living snapshot of GLBT (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender) life in rural northeastern Minnesota at the beginning of the 21st Century. In a region that revels in its quirky Scandinavian culture, complete with polkas, snowmobiles, hot dish, and stoicism, the stories of the film's subjects could easily get lost. Quirky and often poignant, the participants in this film have a story to tell that creates a new view of what it is to be GLBT in rural Minnesota.
HIGHLY Recommended by several Amazon staffers.
