This work examines the prevalence of 'performance spaces' for lesbian identities in films, evaluating how queer femaleness is signified on the screen in contemporary cinema. It studies five films in particular: 'When Night Is Falling', 'Tipping the Velvet', 'Better Than Chocolate', 'Slaves to the Underground' and 'Prey for Rock and Roll'.
