WOMEN IN LOVE is a wild story of love and friendship set within the
sexually charged, politically active, and artistically involved lesbian
community of San Francisco.

Filmmaker Karen Everett (I Shall Not Be Removed: The Life of Marlon
Riggs; Framing Lesbian Fashion) turns the camera on her love life and a
remarkable community of culturally significant, sex radicals in San
Francisco. This riveting documentary explores one woman's journey
through fifteen years of friendship and love. Through home videos,
candid interviews and video diaries, Everett poses universal questions
about the nature of relationships through monogamy and polyamory.

Everett and her friends, now approaching midlife, are part of a
seminal generation of young lesbians who moved to San Francisco in
legions in the 1980's. At the peak of the AIDS epidemic, these queer
women redefined sexuality in their own style: creating lesbian
pornography, strip clubs and sex toy stores. This personal drama
unfolds in scenes that are intimate and public, among women who play
with gender roles, dress up and dress down, ballroom dance and
lapdance, commiserate and celebrate. Looking at ways of loving that
range from friendship to marriage to brief encounters of the passionate
kind, WOMEN IN LOVE is a video autobiography that dares much and bares
all.

Featuring Jackie Strano and Shar Rednour, leading directors of
lesbian pornography and Phyllis Christopher, one of North America's
leading photographers of lesbian erotica this is a film not to be
missed!
