    Very fun, very cute lesbian romance with a hint of Bollywood and lots of Scottish charme. The German audience at the Gay & Lesbian film festival was very, very thankful about the subtitles - Glasgow accent is always a challenge.

The actors do their best, and they are both intensely lovely, but there is very little chemistry between the two, making most of their affection behaviour seem clumsy and uncomfortable. I wanted to like this, I really did, but it just doesn't work. The accents, however, are fabulous.
