She Don't Fade (1991)

Directed by Cheryl Dunye

This charming short traces the dating exploits of Shae, a single black lesbian who’s developed a “new approach to women.” The deceptively simple film solidified the breezy, confessional style that became a Dunye trademark, later infusing her feature debut, 1996’s The Watermelon Woman.

Producer/Screenwriter/Editor: Cheryl Dunye. Cinematographer: Paula Cronan. Cast: Cheryl Dunye, Zoie Strauss, Paula Cronan.

Digital video, b/w, 24 min.
