主人公泰勒一家是典型的中产家庭，在他们从科罗拉多大峡谷游玩回来之后，小儿子迈克尔（大卫·马祖 David Mazouz 饰）似乎受到有关印第安人传说的影响，整日沉迷其中。而他神经质状态对其他家庭成员也产生了巨大影响。无论是父亲（凯文·贝肯 Kevin Bacon 饰）、母亲（拉妲·米契尔 Radha Mitchell 饰）还是姐姐（露西·弗莱 Lucy Fry 饰）似乎都看到了“黑暗”。。Made for only $350,000 in 1985 when no one wanted to fund or star in a movie about lesbians, Desert Hearts is widely considered the first full-length lesbian love story, and its success paved the way for the proliferation of lesbian films we enjoy today. Directed by Donna Deitch and set in 1950's Reno, Nevada, Desert Hearts tells the story of a 35-year-old uptight female professor Vivian (Helen Shaver) who comes to town to file for divorce and ends up falling in love with a free-spirited 25-year-old casino worker Cay (Patricia Charbonneau). Although Vivian left her husband because she had "drowned in still waters," she is not quite prepared for the tidal wave-effect Cay has on her life. As Vivian herself admits, her life is all about "order," and her image of herself as a scholar and a professional, upstanding woman does not include a relationship with a woman. Cay, meanwhile, is living at home with her stepmother, Frances (Audra Lindley) while she waits to meet someone who "counts"--and she almost immediately recognizes that Vivian is that someone. Both women struggle with conflicting desires and a sense of obligation to others, and are ultimately drawn together not just because of their attraction to each other, but because each woman offers the other something she has been unable to find on her own.。
