影片根据加拿大作家Jane Rule创作的小说“Desert of the Heart”改编而成，草影背景设置于美国许多地方不允许离婚的1950年代。主人公之一是35岁的英文教授薇薇安，草影她为了离婚来到法律相对宽容的内华达州雷诺市，暂住在一间农场为离婚官司和流程做准备。严肃的薇薇安因此结识了农场主弗兰西丝的继女凯伊，凯伊比她年轻10岁，平时在赌场打工，是一个对取向不做掩饰的活泼女性。尽管薇薇安意识到自己被凯伊所吸引，她还是对开始这段关系有所顾虑，不确定自己是否做好了和同性在一起的准备。与此同时，被继母弗兰西丝依赖着的凯伊则意识到：薇薇安就是她等待已久的命中注定之人。1985年，成本仅35万美元的《爱的甘露》正式公映，成为了第一部大规模公映的女同爱情长片，它的美好、幽默和对女性情欲的坦荡表达不仅征服了无数观众的心，也让很多人意识到两个女性的爱是可能的，而且并不总以悲剧结尾。这部叫好又叫座的先锋作为日后涌现的更多女同作品铺平了道路。

回复 :A bit of color for once, all the better to see the red flags with, not to mention the obvious aerial file footage of Warsaw. The story concerns Jozef Malesa, the mason or bricklayer of the title. He was once the darling of the party, the son of two old party activists, a worker of heroic reputation, his own commitment to The Movement unquestioned. He was chosen to be destined for great things, specially educated and pushed forward to positions of responsibility in the Party. Eventually he decides, because of the ethical pressures which he feels from the obstructionism of the bureaucracy from above, he asks to return to be a simple bricklayer. He is disturbed with the way the Party deals with people, especially their lack of direct contact. He thinks workers know better than the leadership many times but that's not the way power flows. He is uncomfortable with the compromises to his idealism. He remains committed to social justice and joins his friends for the May Day rally where his comfort and confidence in his place in society cause him to defer to no man, certainly no rat faced men in overcoats with red armbands. His great pleasure in life moreover is laying brick. He finds the work satisfying and fulfilling which is why he was such an obviously superior worker in the first place.
