Cloudburst
DVD Wolfe Price: $19.95 Available: July 30, 2013
Synopsis:
The first time two Oscar-winners have portrayed same-sex lovers on screen!
This hilarious foul-mouthed, lesbian road movie co-stars Oscar®-winning actresses Brenda Fricker and Olympia Dukakis as Dot and Stella, a crackerjack lesbian couple on the run from a nursing home. You’ll laugh so hard you’ll cry.
Stella and Dot have been together for 31 years and have faithfully accompanied one another through life’s ups and downs. Now in their seventies, Stella is hard of hearing and Dot is legally blind.
Dotty’s prudish granddaughter, Molly (played by Genie Award-winner Kristin Booth), decides the best place for Dot is a nursing home that will provide all the necessities. This forces Stella and Dot to make a bold decision: they will leave their hometown and make their way to Canada, where same-sex marriage is legal. It’s a last-gap bid to stay together.
En route to Canada, they pick up a young hitchhiker, Prentice, played by newcomer Ryan Doucette. A small-town boy turned modern dancer, he is returning to Nova Scotia to visit his dying mother. Despite his bravado, Prentice is a confused and wounded soul who has much to learn from Stella and Dot as they wage their own unexpected battle – after three decades, can they keep their family together?

Wine, Women & Friends
DVD Wolfe Price: $14.95 Now Shipping!
Synopsis:
“Captivating.” — MovieRoomReviews.com
Many of us share the fantasy of moving to a lovely village in the South of France, to find a vineyard, create wonderful wines, to sell it and share it with all our friends. Carole LeBlanc and Jo Béfort, an engaging lesbian couple, have done just that.
Carole and Jo started their wine adventure six years ago in Collias, France. Their dream was to produce excellent wine. They had no experience, just their passion – and friends. Winemaking is a complex and labor intensive process, and still a very macho affair in France. But as this captivating film reveals, it is possible for two women who are willing to work hard to achieve their dream and live the life they choose – as well as bring an entire village and community into their world.
“I like the spirit and atmosphere of the film. Congratulations!”- Jean-Louis Trintignant, Award-winning Actor from Amour
“This charming film gives a very personal view of growing grapes and making wine. It celebrates the sense of community that they have created around their passion and takes you through the seasons of one year, treading a careful path between explaining all that is involved without overloading with technical detail.”- Julia Harding, Master of Wine at Jancis Robinson

David Henry Hwang (Playwright and Executive Producer of WHITE FROG)
“I still love My Beautiful Laundrette, Stephen Frears‘s 1985 film from Hanif Kureishi‘s screenplay. The story’s surprising intersections of race, sexuality, and class are handled with a humor and candor which felt absolutely fresh in the ’80s, and remain more complicated than many works dealing with similar themes today.”
Discover the fabulous new movie that David executive produced, WHITE FROG. Coming to DVD and digital in July from Wolfe!
Katherine Brooks (director, FACE 2 FACE & LOVING ANNABELLE)
“My favorite LGBT movie is AIMEE AND JAGUAR. I loved AIMEE AND JAGUAR because their connection was authentic and every element of the film from photography to music fit perfectly. I also love WHEN NIGHT IS FALLING. That first kiss they had at the front door. I think I scratched my DVD I played it back so many times.”
