Summary
"This work examines and critiques the prevalence of "performance spaces" for lesbian identities in films, evaluating how queer femaleness is signified on the screen in contemporary cinema. It studies five films, the women perform their femaleness and their queerness both offstage and on, creating a new kind of female filmic spectacle"--Provided by publisher.
