Gotz, Elke

1992

One of the most tender lesbian love stories to reach the screen at this year's festival, Your Heart Is All Mine is also one of the most quirky.Hilde, played by sly beauty Karla Schender, is a secretary in an anonymous corporate firm. The pariah of the secretarial pool, her colleagues mutter, "All that she knows how to do to is work. When you look like this, what else can you do?"Plenty, apparently! After meeting a baby butch in a butcher shop (a scene not recommended for vegetarians), Hilde sneaks into her new love's apartment, strips, and waits for her to come home from work. German angst and despair give way to 1950s pulp heartthrob as the butcher beds the secretary; keep your eyes open here for one of the loveliest of lovemaking scenes in the coming-out ouvre."
