After learning of her husband's infidelities, a housewife invites an itinerant lesbian to move in with them. None of their lives will ever be the same again.
As a straight white man, I find it difficult to write on films like this. I enjoy the story and the comedy therein. But I always fear I may say the wrong thing, so it might be best not to speculate or dissect the film any more than I have to.
Writing in 2017, the film strikes me a bit as ahead of its time. Not incredibly far ahead, but just a bit. The mid-1990s seem to have been a booming time for lesbian stories. Gay stories in general, as well, but particularly lesbian tales. "Chasing Amy" comes to mind, and the films of Gregg Araki were very popular in some circles. This film probably would have fit in there quite well.
