One student, one teacher, one secret ...

With the biggest internet buzz of any lesbian film in recent memory, Loving Annabelle delivers with the controversial story of forbidden love in a Catholic boarding school. Annabelle (Erin Kelly, Finding Kate, Het), a senator's daughter who is very world wise, falls in love with her beautiful poetry teacher, Simone (Diane Gaidry).

It's a classic lesbian fantasy story of a young student who seduces an older woman. Annabelle pursues Simone, exploiting her emotional weaknesses. Both Kelly and Gaidry's performances are superb, especially as we see Simone's conflict under the watchful eye of Mother Emaculata (Ilene Graff).

Writer/director Katherine Brooks (Finding Kate, Dear Emily, Surrender, "The Complex") was inspired by the 1931 German film Maedchen in Uniform, which follows a girl as she falls for her teacher in a strict Prussian boarding school. Annabelle goes much further than a crush, and it's the daring storyline and erotic charge that make the film that much more interesting.

Keep in mind that this is a fantasy. While in real life it's unlikely that a woman like Simone would risk everything for sex a student, or at least be smarter about it, a little suspension of disbelief makes this film one to watch.
