The Eternal Triangle
A documentary trilogy that examines a central sexual dilemma from the viewpoint of the mistress, the wife and the husband. The Mistress
Three mistresses talk frankly, ruefully and often wittily about their long-term liaisons with married men. The first openly shares her man with his legal wife. The life of the second is a lonely vigil redeemed only by rare and brief encounters. The third was pampered until she became pregnant, after which she became less a mistress and more the mother of a secret family.
The second showing of this film illustrates the first angle of the eternal triangle - the loneliness, secrecy, betrayal and abandonment that often go hand in hand with being a mistress. In the following two weeks it will be the wife and the husband who talk candidly about their love lives.
