Chely Wright, the first major gay country music star to come out as gay, took the Capital Pride Festival stage on Sunday, June 13, to find a cheering and enthusiastic crowd.

Rebellious Catholic schoolgirls, hidden secrets and a controversial romance all unfold in the newest addition to the lesbian cult classic canon, joining films like The Children’s Hour and Mädchen in Uniform. Annabelle (Erin Kelly), the defiant daughter of a senator, arrives at a prestigious Catholic boarding school after being expelled from many others. It’s up to the school’s poetry teacher Simone (Diane Gaidry) to ensure the rebellious teen does not stir up trouble. Brazen and beautiful, the new student quickly turns heads with her striking beauty and clever charm and set her sights on seducing her alluring teacher. Annabelle aggressively makes her move in class as the teacher desperately tries to conceal her lust not only because of her position but also because she is trying to suppress her lesbian past. Talented writer/director Katherine Brooks brilliantly captures the conflicting emotions of romantic attraction and apprehension in this thought-provoking and compelling drama.
