A film by Ina Adele Ray |
|
HD Color Short Comedy TRT: 11 min. |
|
Debbie Gibson is her idol, hulahoops are her passion, and New York City is in her horizon---Gem, the totally outrageous Jersey Dyke, knows no boundaries!
|
Inspired by John Waters and very bad lesbian romance films, star-crossed Catholic-school-girl lesbian lovers are torn apart by family pressures. Marcy, the ingénue, backs down from her true love, Gem, in fear of her mother's wrath. Gem, the film's hero, escapes the social pressure to be 'straight' in Jersey by running away to the Big Apple where she hopes to pursue her dream of becoming a professional hula-hooper. |
