Winner of the People's Choice Award at the London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival. Set in Vancouver, this delightful and very sexy new lesbian feature is a rollicking tale centering around the pretty 19-year-old bookstore clerk Maggie, and her diverse circle of friends and family. Maggie's life has been going great, especially since meeting Kim, an itinerant artist. They fall for each other hard and fast enjoying art, sex and chocolate. The only problem is that Maggie's recently divorced mother, Lila, has decided to move in. Then there is the transexual Judy who befriends Lila and is in love with Frances the lesbian bookstore owner who is fighting customs over banned books. A great soundtrack including artists like Bif Naked, Ani DiFranco, and Sara McLachlan all lend to the humor and romance of this "sexy, funny, touching and always generous" romantic comedy" (David Stratton, Variety). A reception follows screening. Special thanks to the Canadian Consulate General.

With her thoughtful depiction of relationships and sexual identity in the nineties, Rose Troche of Go Fish fame has created a sophisticated and witty romantic comedy. The story revolves around flatmates Leo and Darren, and their friend Angie. Leo seeks a substantial relationship while Darren is content with casual sex. Leo, disillusioned with the singles scene, finally joins a "new-man" therapy group, where he meets the handsome Brendan. What follows is a fun romp with sparkling humor and buoyant performances. "Bedrooms and Hallways is an original, lively examination of the trials and tribulations of lust and love, brimming with scintillating performances by a fine cast of young British actors" (Michèle Maheux, Toronto International Film Festival Catalog.)
