Trip around the world with a mix of international short lesbian films: a camp musical from Korea, a Turkish wedding in Amsterdam, a group of queer women going for a holiday on the lake and a bus full of hormonal teenagers. There is also a hilarious thesis on the role of women in the world of cinema. This and more in our international lesbian mix.
Duration: 90 minutes.
“Stop being miserable.” After hearing her ex’s last words to her, Mi-hae, a lead singer of an independent band, cannot get herself to sing the band’s most popular song, “Oppa’s Girl”.
Asli, a young Turkish woman, no longer lives in the village where she grew up. She lives with her girlfriend and has built a life of her own where she doesn’t have to define herself to anyone. She desperately wants to go to Irem’s engagement party, but is scared that her old friends won’t accept her and her sexuality. When the ritual at the henna-party starts, Asli suddenly sees her younger self. This vision reminds her of her youth, when her friend group played together without judgement and enjoyed each other’s company without a care. This memory reassures Asli and makes her realise she is safe and allowed to be who she is. And so, she realises that she harbours the biggest prejudice and once more feels connected with her Turkish background.
Simone is suddenly confronted with her ex-wife Nora. After the loss of their daughter, they had no contact for a long time. Simone loses the balance between reason and feeling.
The Protagonist, by her given name, is presented to us in her natural environment: a jungle, sadly, often lacking in density. But today enough is enough! Being the mother, the secretary, the lover, the nanny, the baby bottle, the side piece of the main male character is no longer enough for our dear Protagonist! Put on “mute” after the allocated time for female* characters in a film was reached, she runs away with her friend the Voice-Over for a new journey with plenty of humor.
A group of queer best friends arrive at the lake for the perfect getaway. Their Gaycation gets interrupted when the group discovers the lake house has been double booked by a bachelor party.
