Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

The island of Lesbos has struggled with its name becoming synonymous with female homosexuality, with some locals even attempting to reclaim 'Lesbian' as purely geographic.

Trivia

Director Robert Crombie primarily works in Russian cinema; this was his English-language debut starring his then-wife Lyudmila Shiryaeva as Helene.
