"Cheryl Dunye not only wrote, directed, and edited her groundbreaking film THE WATERMELON WOMAN but also played the lead role. In this first-ever feature film directed by a Black lesbian, she plays a 25-year-old African-American woman who works with her girlfriend Tamara in a video store in Philadelphia. After discovering Fae Richards, a Black actress then known for playing stereotypical “mammy” roles, Dunye’s character decides to make a documentary in which she tries to discover this woman’s identity and her own. THE WATERMELON WOMAN is considered a landmark within the New Queer Cinema movement and won a @teddyaward after its premiere in Berlin."
