Selects Her Own

Fed up with her mother's homophobia, 16-year-old Barbara hitchhikes to the nearest city, seeking a safe haven. Instead, she encounters the "God hates fags" message of a street preacher. Feeling like an abandoned soul on the wrong planet, Barbara is delighted to find a "queer-friendly" rural commune where she will not have to deal with the public. However, she has fallen in love with a woman who is as much a misfit on the commune as Barbara is in mainstream society. Their struggle to mesh conflicting dreams in order to create a joyful and fulfilling life for both seems so hopeless, they try going separate ways. But over time, their love has grown strong and deep, binding them fast. They can only renew their efforts to make a life together. Interwoven with this special challenge is one all lovers face, the struggle to mesh individual needs and dreams to create a joyful and fulfilling life for both.
