A Woman Like Eve 1979 - (Drama, Netherlands, 113 min)






















Without English Subs

A very strong women's movie - defending strong feminist principles of the 70'ties - used as decor for the portrait of a touching lesbian love story (based on actual events)!

Eve (Monique van de Ven) a housewife meets Liliane while on vacation in the south of France and at first, she is simply entertained and attracted by Liliane's free-wheeling, back-to-nature existence but soon discovers that there is a sexual component to her attraction ..when the two women meet again to Amsterdam and spend some time together, Eve realizes that she is in love with Liliane. It is not without difficulties that Eve comes to terms with her feelings for Liliane, nevertheless she decides to go for it..

Seems that 1979 was a year where Dutch audiences were able to watch two lesbian themed movies that according to the book The Cinema of the Low Countries by Ernest Mathijs and Harry Kumel “were a reminder of how sensitive such issues were in Dutch society” in the late seventies as both created notable controversies. One of the movies is this one and the other is the amazing Twee Vrouwen (Twice a Woman) by George Sluizer, that you can find too in this blog.
