Light and trippy. This film never takes itself seriously. it is colorful, with some very good music, and characters that make it worth watching.
Two friends, and I really mean friends, Sassafras (Danièle Ferraro) and Lou (Michelle Wolff) move from flyover country to the lesbian section of San Francisco. They are lesbians, but "baby dykes." They are trying to find themselves in an era of role playing.
Eventually, they decide to become lovers, but leave the door open to other relationships.
Sassafras' mother (Sally Kirkland) tries to tell her that "open marriage" works in theory, but is messy in practice. They soon find that out. Despite their establishment of "rules" to guide the relationship, they soon fall into jealous traps.
I must say all this "Daddy" and "Princess" business got a little tiresome, but maybe I am not supposed to get it.
What I did get was that non-monogamy does not work. They got it too eventually.
I have to admit that San Francisco looked like a really fun city at the time.
Fine performances by Dru Mouser, Tina Marie Murray, and Shannon Rossiter, in addition to those mentioned.
