Event
The Owls screening at 2011 Stella Artois QFest
With a sly nod to the acronym for "older, wiser lesbians," Cheryl ("Watermelon Woman") Dunye's neo-noir head-twister brings together two fortysomething lesbian couples who share a convoluted incident in their past, an unexpected predicament in their present lives, and a seriously uncertain future as couples. The situation that has caused them to arrive at this crossroads involves a night of drunken debauchery in which alcohol-fueled anger led to unanticipated consequences and a collective decision that will haunt them as time goes by. This shared experience keeps the couples perversely connected to one another, until the arrival of a mysterious stranger causes their long-kept, dark secret to surface. Terrific performances by a who's who of contemporary lesbian filmmaking and a revolutionary storytelling technique that marries a fractured narrative structure with cinema verité techniques mark "The Owls" as a bold new departure in GLBT storytelling, a film that will leave tongues wagging long after the lights have gone up.
