Life can begin at 40 according to LOVE ME LEX a new mini-series from Australia. It’s a heartwarming feel-good story about a lesbian looking for love in her 40s and is a very inspiring tale for all queer women.
Created by queer screenwriter and director Sanja Katich, and based on their own experiences it highlights the “different” aspects of when you are dating at this age. The series follows protagonist Lex Adamson (Sarah Light) as she returns to the world of dating. Whilst first navigating through the muddy waters of the dating pool, Lex is pleasantly surprised when two potential lovers are in line for her attention.
The big question is, who will she choose? Will it be the newly acquainted and effervescent Kat (Deanna Cooney), or will she attempt to rekindle the flame with her ex Miranda (Susan Stevenson)? Or will Lex stay single forever?
Kaitch told the Star Observer “While a lot of the experiences can be similar [to dating in your 20s and 30s] in that there are so often awkward, unsuccessful and amusing situations that you might get yourself into – when you’re over 40 the already tiny lesbian pool has shrunk to not much more than a puddle!”
Katich says it is the right time and environment for a lesbian-led series with a “happy ending” to be showcased, with Love Me Lex bringing a new lease on love.
All seven episodes of Love Me Lex are now available to rent on Lesflicks.
Episodes will also be released weekly for Lesflicks subscription holders, starting October 11. Labels: 2023, Love Me Lex
