...Japanese filmmaker Kaze Shindo's first film Love/Juice, an am-I-or-aren't-I lesbian story that won her Rookie of the Festival award in Berlin three weeks ago. Interesting territory even for Japan: two roommates, lesbian photographer Chinatsu (Okuno Mika) and friend Kyoko (Chika Fujimura), do drugs, sleep and brush teeth together. Chinatsu quickly falls in love with Kyoko. They kiss and touch one another - Chinatsu shows the uninitiated Kyoko how to masturbate - but the latter recoils from physical love. A stronger movie would have started where this one leaves off, but it's a compact, spare tale...
