 beautifully moving August 9, 2010

I found this movie to be very moving, it deals with issues of race, sex and mistreatment. The backdrop scenery is beautiful and is matched by the script and actors. Lisa Ray and Sheetal Sheth are both wonderful to look at but also make you believe their characters.
This is one fo two films by Shamim Sharif that I have seen and would recommend both this film and "I can't think straight".

The World Unseen is one of the better lesbian films that I have seen (not that that would be hard) It isn't just about the two women but about the era, life and politics in South Africa in the 50's. I would definately recommend watching this but if you are just after a bit of light viewing and girlie hanky panky then this isn't the film for you.

Challenging, relevant issue-based filmmaking - essential viewing February 15, 2010

Bought this because of the cute girls on the cover, and really liked the short film they were in on this collection. I wasn't expecting this to be such a thought-provoking viewing experience. Judging by the reviews here it seems like people either love or hate this compilation. Also, it seems that it is appreciated more by women who are interested in edgier, alternative arthouse cinema rather than teenage girls who gush over the L Word OMG LOL etc. Of course it isn't 'If These Walls Could Talk 2' - that is a high-end production which had a big budget and Hollywood stars. This is indie filmmaking at its best. It amazes me how the lesbian community can be their own harshest critics. Also, judging by some of the reviews written below, it seems that some people fail to grasp the essence of what a short film actually is. Namely, that it is SHORT and provides an insight or snippet rather than an entire happy clappy beginning-middle-end story. Another reviewer said there were negative stereotypes!? I thought the film with the abusive girlfriend was excellently shot and was a film that dared to tackle an issue that is relevant and rarely exposed. It annoys me how lesbians today go crazy over trashy glossy shows like L Word but then cry foul when they watch something edgier with a brain that actually portrays relevant and challenging subject matter.
