Summertime 15

Summertime (Belle Saison) tells the frank story of a lesbian love affair between 2 French women in the early seventies. Drawn together, teacher Carole and farmer Delphine fall head over heels in a beautiful, tumultuous and euphoric romance. Set against a back-drop of fierce social change and activism with an evocative modern and period soundtrack, Corsini interweaves lush French countryside with vibrant Paris cityscapes. Summertime sways between public and private desires, action and melodrama, protest and preservation, love and independence. Bright, brave and stylish - file next to Pride and Blue Is the Warmest Colour.
