Plot
A short but sweet cinematic confection, Floored by Love is a feel-good movie with believable characters and realistic situations. Directed by Desiree Lim, the film cuts between two storylines: the first centers on the coming-out and commitment woes of an Asian-Canadian lesbian couple (Janet and Cara, played by Natalie Sky and Shirley Ng); the other follows a gay teenager (Jesse, played by Trenton Millar) and the complex relationship he has with his supportive parents.

Family love and the complexity of familial relations are the core issues in both story lines, giving the film a solid and balanced center. Set in Vancouver, Floored opens on Cara and Janet, presenting them as a happy, grounded couple. When gay marriage is legalized in British Columbia, Janet immediately wants to tie the knot, but Cara is hesitant and terrified of upsetting her conservative, Chinese parents.

Hello Lust,

I think I've never heard about this movie because it's not really a asian movie. you have pinned it in the right place, this sub-section is done for these movies.

based in British Columbia, the stairway of Prisoner_701, this sweet little story is very attractive. well, to be honest, seing Desiree Lim as director is not that good. we've seen a previous movie of her own, Sugar sweet which is far from a marvelous movie. as she's really lesbian she does lesbian movies, hoping lesbian will rush on them, that's quite logic. I want to give a chance to this short movie. perhaps there will be more normal lesbian diaries and not so much of grotesc "extreme" terminal phase of sex-addiction.

online critics are fair with Floored by love.

I have an english release of this movie. I should better say american/canadian version, but it is still understandable for me.

I had seen the same version, canadien accent.
Worth watching anyway.
