Made for only $350,000 in 1985 when no one wanted to fund or star in a movie about lesbians, Desert Hearts is widely considered the first full-length lesbian love story, and its success paved the way for the proliferation of lesbian films we enjoy today. Directed by Donna Deitch and set in 1950's Reno, Nevada, Desert Hearts tells the story of a 35-year-old uptight female professor Vivian (Helen Shaver) who comes to town to file for divorce and ends up falling in love with a free-spirited 25-year-old casino worker Cay (Patricia Charbonneau). Although Vivian left her husband because she had "drowned in still waters," she is not quite prepared for the tidal wave-effect Cay has on her life. As Vivian herself admits, her life is all about "order," and her image of herself as a scholar and a professional, upstanding woman does not include a relationship with a woman. Cay, meanwhile, is living at home with her stepmother, Frances (Audra Lindley) while she waits to meet someone who "counts"--and she almost immediately recognizes that Vivian is that someone. Both women struggle with conflicting desires and a sense of obligation to others, and are ultimately drawn together not just because of their attraction to each other, but because each woman offers the other something she has been unable to find on her own.。本剧围绕六个目前仍然单身并且有部分可能报终生独身主义的男女展开。 现今社会独身主义者当道，随处可见超过30岁仍未嫁人的女性，并且有许多人抱持着在爱情和工作之间选择工作的态度，独身主义已经不再有什么稀奇了。 但独身主义的人究竟能过得幸福吗？如今的女人幸福之处就在于，不用再必须舍弃自己的幸福成就爱情和家庭，要工作就工作想不结婚就不结婚，只管选择自己的路走就行。 这是一部讲述三个平凡女人为了探索自己的幸福，踏上了曲折蜿蜒人生征途的连续剧，直白而愉快的描写出女性在事业、爱情、结婚的道路上率真的梦想与现实。。
