Camp Belvidere

I generally don't watch lesbian short films. My usual experience with them is that they're frustratingly amateurish, with poor production value and bad acting. I know that money is what makes any film possible, and that a short film is a compressed experience, but having a shoestring budget should not in and of itself result in low quality work. So I was pleasantly surprised by Camp Belvidere. With just 38 minutes to tell its story, it did so with rich visuals, a strong theme, decent performances, atmospheric soundtrack, and a compelling and satisfying plot. No film is perfect, and personal opinions are just that, but if you're in the mood for a lesbian romance film, Camp Belvidere is commendable.

Nicely crafted short film telling a story of self-acceptance, love, passion and longing between two women. I loved the scenes and music. It's difficult to present the pace of an evolving love story in a short film. Rose is a strong young lady who definitely knows what she wants. Rose's determination questions and challenges Gin's naturally dominant role as the older and more experienced character. The two ladies' performances were convincing and the chemistry was definitely there. Love scenes were superbly shot.

It's a pity this is only a short film. Astrid should keep on telling stories of lesbian love, this piece was an excellent one.

Or female(?) - but surely no pun intended. If you are open minded (and you really should be, considering this depicts same sex/gender love), you will cherish the theme of the movie - and how troubled the characters are. An impulsive act starts it all - love can not be denied - well to one self that is. You should of course get consent from the other individual.

Some may have issues that this does not depict the love act in an explicit manner - on the other hand, I watched this on Youtube and there might be some version with at least some nudity to it. That said, this should not be the main reason you are watching this. There are other sites that will .. satisfy any of those needs. This is more about the struggle ... and the love that is a struggle in our society .. and in the minds of our characters. Can you dig it.

Such a beautiful movie. Soundtrack so good. Plot so great. Choreography beautiful.

Beautiful story all the characters did well Astrid you did great...
