Blurring the boundaries of documentary and fiction, Brou\u00e9\u2019s self reflections offer a quirky, sometimes moving, backdrop to larger themes of desire, social norms and gender roles that play out in her film and life.<br \/>\n<em><a href=\"https:\/\/viff.org\/Online\/viwiff-2017\">Vancouver International Women In Film Festival<\/a> (#VIWIFF)<\/em>, where LUTINE won the <strong>Best Feature Award<\/strong> and the<strong> Best Screenplay Award<\/strong> in 2017<\/p>\n<p>\u00ab\u00a0Thank you, the movie is beautiful, it&rsquo;s wonderful.

The innovative director, Isabelle Brou\u00e9, makes surprisingly apt <strong>parallels between the creative process behind film making and the exploratory, personal experience of learning about lifestyle alternatives<\/strong> and delving into one\u2019s sexuality. Through an exploratory perspective, we are given a window into a community of real polyamorous people, for indeed the film blends together actors and members of the community within many of its scenes.<br \/>\nWe are all seeking the type of future that best suites us\u2014seeking to express our sexuality in an honest, fulfilling manner. <strong>LUTINE\u00a0is the type of film that leaves you with a lot to think about<\/strong>, no matter your actual experience with its subject matter.<br \/>\n<em>&#8211;Dr. Naas-Lattanzio, after seeing the film at Beyond the Love Summit, in November 2015<\/em><\/p>\n<p>SUPER!

It covers the <strong>initial explorations and tribulations of a woman and her partner in polyamory<\/strong>, their mistakes and growth. The storyline and levels are rich and intricate. <strong>You\u2019ll be trying to work it out for ages<\/strong>. I really recommend everyone watch it.

LUTINE\u00a0presented everything that film school wanted to teach, but forgot. Director, writer, producer, star Isa Broue\u2019 <strong>let the narrative have fun<\/strong> and imbued the dialogue with <strong>crisp humor AND a solid philosophical credibility<\/strong>. Including international polyamory stalwarts as Dossie Easton, Meta, and Francoise Simpere only bolstered an alternately serious and sauntering exploration, exposition of plural relationships. The film and filmmaker Isabelle Broue\u2019 are the next big things.<br \/>\n<em>Kato Cooks, filmmaker\u00a0(Hibakusha, 2012)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So much fun!
