the gymnast ( 2006 ) be write and direct by ned farr . dreya weber portrays jane hawkins and a former world class gymnast who be seriously injured and now earn her living a a certified massage therapist . the promotional material lead you to believe that the plot hinge around jane accidental reunion with a former teammate . although this meeting take place and that plot line be secondary to the main plot and which involve jane and her husband and and a professional dancer name serena ( addie yungmee ) . the two woman develop an act of the type perform by cirque de soleil . the two complement each other jane be more experienced with height and have tremendous upper body strength . serena be more elegant and artistic and although and obviously and also capable of incredible physical feat . the film work because we can understand how jane would turn to addie and who be care and compassionate and while jane husband have take her for grant for the many year of their marriage . both woman be incredibly fit and athletic and and dreya have the lean body and well define muscle that be characteristic of gymnast . they clearly be truly perform their act and and the result be so excellent that we can believe they would indeed and be a success in las vega and or anywhere else they travel . the sexual tension between the woman be obvious and and the situation become even more complex when the act require them to kiss while suspend in the air . a woman with a neglectful husband and an attractive woman partner make for an explosive situation and which isn not resolve in a neat and tidy fashion . of the six film we saw at the rochester ny lesbian and gay film and video festival and we think this one be the best . it will work on dvd and and be definitely worth seek out on large or small screen . note represent stay for the credit .
