Love Between the Covers
D: Laurie Kahn | USA | 95 min | Regional Premiere
Love stories are universal. Love stories are powerful. And so are the women who
write them. Love Between the Covers is the fascinating story of the vast, funny, and savvy female community that has built a powerhouse industry sharing love stories. Romance fiction is sold in 34 languages on six continents, and the genre grosses more than a billion dollars a year -- outselling mystery, sci-fi, and fantasy combined. Romance authors have built a fandom unlike any other.Yet the millions of voracious women (and sometimes men) who read, write, and love romance novels have remained oddly invisible. Until now.
