Forbidden Love: The Unashamed Stories of Lesbian Lives
Ten Canadian women discuss their experiences as lesbians in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, including finding pulp fiction about women in love, their own first affairs, the agony of splitting up, frequenting gay bars, confronting police raids, men's reactions, and the etiquette of butch and femme roles. Four dramatized chapters from the pulp book "Forbidden Love" are interspersed throughout the interviews and archival video.
