Résumé
Compelling, often hilarious and always rebellious, the women interviewed in
Forbidden Love recount stories about their first loves and their search for
the places where openly gay women gathered in mid-20th century urban centres.
Against a soundtrack of pop hits and a backdrop of pulp novel covers, archival
footage, and tabloid headlines, these women’s coming-of-age experiences in the
1950s and ’60s are explored with grace, humour, and irreverence. With the
candour of survivors of struggle, the women offer an affecting portrait of a
community once consigned to silence and exile.
Forbidden Love brings an important and empowering history of
lesbian sexuality in Canada out of the closet. Re-mastered in HD.
