Jan's Coming Out

Jan’s coming out late in life. After watching the entire series of The L Word back to back, the effervescent 50 year old finally realizes what it is that has been missing all her life: lesbians. In this engaging documentary we follow Jan as she comes to terms with her sexuality and her quest to discover all things Sapphic in the new world that has opened up to her. From chatting to lesbian party goers, to sharing a drink and some jokes with out author Stella Duffy and her wife, and even spending an idyllic weekend in the country with out actresses and real life couple Jill Bennett and Cathy DeBuono. Jan’s openness and her joy at finally figuring out her sexuality is palpably felt on screen. There are tears, heartfelt conversations but most of all lots of laughter and celebration in Jan’s Coming Out. –BFI
