In the 1970s, the two leading female directors in the exploitation field were Stephanie Rothman and Babara Peeters. Both naturally worked for Roger Corman then set out on their own. Peeters is credited as co-director and sole writer for this, which is part of the "dykesploitation" sub-genre.
Two housewives go to lunch one day and see some lesbians hold hands. This encourages them to have sex; one wants to keep going but the other one doesn’t – tragedy results. This is a well-known gay plot – Penthouse Forum used it for years.
It’s not super exploitative – nudity but the women are older, there are pleas for understanding gays as normal, etc. But you reduce the exploitive factor and to be honest what you’re left with is some fairly awful acting and dialogue
