Meet Max, a hot & hip young lesbian looking for love and sex in Chicago. Enter Ely, a shy, hippieish, slightly older woman with seemingly little in common. But with the help of friends, love can blossom in this story of a woman looking for Ms. Right but going about it all wrong. A pioneering work of New Queer Cinema, director-screenwriter Rose Troche and screenwriter-star Guinevere Turner craft an artistically authentic comedy – stylishly filmed in black and white – that truly shines.
