Back to Life

Women with past and present hurdles work to overcome them in this program of love, loss, new beginnings and the constant horrors of online dating.

Thirty-three-year-old Eve is single and searching for love online. She just might find herself in Evelyn Everyone, a mix of animation and live action. For a newcomer, sex with a woman can be daunting. What better way to learn than to hire a prostitute? Over sushi dinner, white wine and soft music, the two women both reconsider the prejudices they have about themselves and about one another in At Home (or Love as Well). A traumatic past experience rears its ugly head in Innocence Remains as a woman struggles to move her relationship forward. Following the death of Trista’s girlfriend, the comforting shoulder of straight gal-pal Monica turns into more in Back to Life, a gentle story of love between friends. In one afternoon, Margot and Claudia’s relationship is sliced open to reveal those moments when what is, what was, and what could be, collide in Lie Together. El Salvador’s civil war sets the stage for a narrative short where Lucha and Isabella must face hard truths. Is non-violence more powerful than armed resistance? Does love of country trump romantic love?
