Valerie Minetto is a director new to me: she has made an attractive little study of two women in love that has more interest than better known pictures like Kissing Jessica Stein. I like the way the film goes along without too many political distractions (although Cheyenne's year of unemployment is made much of), just trusting in the substance of the story.
Aurelia Petit has a sad look sometimes, concealing her doggedness. Teaching chemistry to bored adolescents is getting her down. Mila Dekker is sometimes shrill and sometimes winning. Laurence Cote as the rural activist leads us to question the validity of the back to the land movement; her cynicism in the realms of politics and love is off-putting.
