The story of an unexpected, atypical lesbian romance set in 1950's Reno, Nevada.

If you're willing to overlook the low production quality and a few stiff performances, there's a very interesting film here. Helen Shaver is absolutely gorgeous and Audra Lindley (aka Mrs. Roper) impressed almost everyone with her portrayal of the loving but closed-minded stepmother.

Overall, an enjoyable, unearthshattering respite from the never-ending onslaught of 'conventional' cinema.
