Je suis lesbienne. Montreal

I am a lesbian, so ? Twenty-two Montrealers (young, old, butch, feminine, English speaking, French speaking, from all different kinds of places…) are affirming it loud and clear, exposing view points and experiences. A dive into lesbianism based on self-expression : personal and sensitive, lucid and proud, often engaged. An opportunity to hear voices which still remain too unfamiliar often ignored and rarely acknowledged. The strength of words through testimonies, self-affirmation and empowerment ! Yes !

Nikki, an awkward and invisible, “nerd” maths student must join a sports’ team to try to develop her social skills. She thus ends up in the female American football team 'The Mermaids'. A comedy wink at the “High school” films of the 1980s, with a good dose of girl and lesbian power as a bonus !
