CGiii Comment
The death of a dog can, seemingly, make you a lesbian.
Now...that is a revelation and a damn fine imagination.
This is truly a bizarre little fable about plain Jane and a circus queen.
It is a tasteful film with moments of wonderful eccentricity.
It has a warmth that keeps you watching - you will leave the lives of these characters all the better for meeting them.
One of the best lesbian-themed films out there.
Charming. Quite charming.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
Camille and Martin are in love and teachers at a christian college; they get the opportunity to get a better job, but they would have to marry for that. But when Camille's dog dies, she recognizes that her love for Martin is not even as big as the love for her dog. After that, Camille gets to know Petra, and Petra falls in love with Camille. They meet again, but Camille is very unsure about her feelings. When Martin is away for a weekend, Camille and Petra meet in the Circus where Petra is working as an acrobat. They spend the night together, but Martin finds out about it and is shocked. He has an argument with Camille, and she goes burying her dog in the snow, and falls asleep.
