The Doctor's Daughter or The Secret and the Lie --
Description du film [en anglais] :
« The Doctor's Daughter or The Secret and the Lie is the docu-dramatization of the beginning and the end of a six-year relationship between two young women. The film moves back and forth between Trinidad in 1991 and Toronto in 1996. Nicki (Janine Fung) visits her friend Regan (Gillian Frise) in Trinidad. Nicki falls in love with Regan but Regan is engaged to Howard (Richard Bolai). Nicki and Regan sleep together anyway. Six years later Regan returns to Toronto and moves in with Nicki. That's when it gets hard to tell whose life is a lie and who's living the lie. Fung tells a story that begs the question: How (and why) do we hold on to our first love in spite of the inherent self-doubt, denial and inevitable heartbreak it brings? The Doctor's Daughter or The Secret and the Lie is a quiet film that embraces the uneven everydayness of modern love. »
