A brilliant look into black lesbians in domestic violent relationships
athinblackline17 February 2006
A brilliant look into Black lesbian in domestic violent relationships. Roberta Munroe has created a world of both beauty and love. She juxtaposes this love with violence and sorrow. A candid viewpoint we can all learn from. Munroe also finds a way to give us an opportunity to witness a different kind of love. She described it on a website as a film about 'our ability and inability to negotiate love'. Shot on 35mm Munroe uses lush color to reveal her characters emotions. Geary Mcleod lenses the women with care and expertise. This film stars the incredible Yolonda Ross giving one of the best performances of her career. Lisa Branch, the abuser, creates a world of jealousy, fear and love with a wonderful and believable performance. Co-stars lesbian icon, Guinevere Turner and Linda Husser.
