"The Girl's Feelings Are Always Poetry" is the most controversial film at the 1977 Cannes Film Festival. With bold and beautiful imagery, it describes a female student who is experiencing her first love, entwined with a lesbian storyline. The title's "Bilitis" refers to a courtesan who lived in Cyprus in ancient Greece, rumored to have written many poems about lesbian love, similar in style to the ancient Greek poet Sappho of her time. As a result, she later became a symbol for Western lesbians, and the island where she and Sappho lived, "Lesbos," is the origin of the term "lesbian." In 1955, one of the earliest lesbian organizations was named "Daughters of Bilitis."
