About

You might enjoy this if you want a tense, restrained lesbian romance in a rigid Catholic school setting that builds slowly; Not for you if uncomfortable teacher-student power dynamics are a hard no, or if you prefer something less polarizing than Desert Hearts or Bound.

Pros: sweet, slow-building romance; believable tension; strong lead performances | Cons: uncomfortable teacher-student dynamic; divisive pacing; some felt it lacked depth
