Synopsis

John Greyson’s acclaimed 1996 hit, LILIES, is an adaptation by Michel Marc Bouchard and Linda Gaboriau of Bouchard’s own play Lilies. The film depicts a play being performed in a prison by the inmates. Through recollections and confessions, this gay classic reveals a love kept secret for decades. This new 4K restoration,  supervised by Greyson, brings the luster of the film’s gorgeous colors and sets. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and received critical acclaim around the globe, winning Best Picture at the Genie (Canada’s equivalent of the Oscars) and winning three other categories.

“A tense drama of tangled emotions and savage repercussions.”
– Peter Stack, San Francisco Chronicle (1997)

Reviews

“Greyson deserves much credit for realizing an outrageous theatrical conceit with clarity, consistency, and an arsenal of cinematic ideas.”
– Bob Satuloff, Film Journal International (2000)
