The film tells a tale of just because you may find someone you are convinced this relationship is for you Life's societal, Family issues, And other roadblocks can derail bliss from happening.
I enjoyed the journey of how this relationship came together in the end. The actors were competent and believable even though "The true love" message seemed a bit weak. Part of the journey was the telling of the life she lived with her meddling parents and her marriage disintegration. This to me is where the film is strong. It was refreshing to see her put her daughter first over every outside person around even her new lover. She made it clear that her daughter needs her father.
The film did have a few typical cliches of lesbian love and or women discovering they prefer being with another woman. Like children seem to always understand and accept new lesbian parents. Or a woman automatically likes or knows all will be well in being in a lesbian relationship.
It was good in showing that she was just as guilty in the breakup of the marriage as he was. The conversation with her husband where she expressed true sorrow for the demise of their marriage to me was spectacular. The husband in this scene was equally great. This kind dialog is very rare in lesbian films. Also the film touched on just because she found lesbian love was it really worth it in what she has to go through to be happy.
As I said above, The journey she takes is better than the love story. So give this film a watch if you want more than a typical lesbian love story.
