This piece of LGBT cinema was flawed from the outset for a number of reasons and that is a damn shame.
Telling the story of an engaged girl who finds herself in a sexual relationship with a girl and the effect it has on her life.
Here is the main issue, a movie is doomed to failure if you don't like the protagonist(s). And how am I supposed to like or care about this girl when the entire movie is about her cheating on her partner? She may very well be having a sexual "Awakening" but that doesn't take anything away from her actions. The movie doesn't even present the fiancé as a bad guy either which they often do to soften the blow.
Highly explicit very graphic (And certain sexual acts are clearly real) this highly charged tale of seduction, sexuality and betrayal is a simple one but quite powerful regardless.
I being the loyal pup I am simply cannot get over that one major plot flaw though and that's why to me this piece of cinema fails and fails hard despite being a well made film.
The Good:
Very well shot
The Bad:
Just can't get behind an unfaithful protagonist
