LOS ANGELES, Calif. – Leana Lovings delivers a nuanced performance that benefits from her own life experience in “Grand Gesture,” the latest episode from the award-winning True Lesbian series from Bree Mills and Adult Time.
Directed by Anatomik Media, “Grand Gesture” features Lovings and Gizelle Blanco in portrayal of a young lesbian couple who are contemplating attending a school prom. In the scene, Brooklyn (Lovings) has invited her girlfriend, Ashley (Blanco), to be her date at her school’s prom. The prom at Ashley’s school didn’t allow same-sex couples, so Ashley is excited that now she can attend one with her girlfriend. Brooklyn, on the other hand, is feeling anxious as this date also will serve as her coming out publicly for the first time.
Noting Brooklyn’s stress, Ashley assures her that they don’t have to go together if she’s worried about coming out to her school. Though Brooklyn is nervous, she also wants to help Ashley live out her dream of going to prom.
Lovings said she was awed by the script’s parallels to her own life.
“I had no expectations of how deep this scene would hit me,” Lovings said. “It felt like a love letter to the me that grew up in a conservative school, with no knowledge of my sexual identity. Working in porn has helped me feel so many things, but this scene confronted the thing I never knew I needed at 18: acceptance.
“Adult Time, Bree Mills, and the crew are always so supportive, and Gizelle Blanco was, of course, the perfect partner,” Lovings added.
Adult Time describes True Lesbian as a series inspired by real-life sexual experiences between women and dedicated to creating erotic stories about lesbian sex that are rooted in positive representation and authenticity. The result is respectful, uplifting, meaningful and cinematic entertainment for both traditional and queer audiences. “Grand Gesture” and the full True Lesbian series are available at TrueLesbian.com, Girlsway.com and on the AdultTime.com platform.
