Quote:
"With the cheeky combination of documentary interview and melodramatic bodice-ripper styles, the film [Forbidden Love: The Unashamed Stories of Lesbian Lives] manages to be both serious and playful, and it invites the audience to enjoy the modulated experience it offers, the pleasures and the trials of its truth and fiction about lesbianism in Canada. [...] What a joy—and education—for everyone who sees it."
-- Jean Bruce, Gerda Cammaer
