影片根据加拿大作家Jane Rule创作的小说“Desert of the Heart”改编而成,背景设置于美国许多地方不允许离婚的1950年代。主人公之一是35岁的英文教授薇薇安,她为了离婚来到法律相对宽容的内华达州雷诺市,暂住在一间农场为离婚官司和流程做准备。严肃的薇薇安因此结识了农场主弗兰西丝的继女凯伊,凯伊比她年轻10岁,平时在赌场打工,是一个对取向不做掩饰的活泼女性。尽管薇薇安意识到自己被凯伊所吸引,她还是对开始这段关系有所顾虑,不确定自己是否做好了和同性在一起的准备。与此同时,被继母弗兰西丝依赖着的凯伊则意识到:薇薇安就是她等待已久的命中注定之人。1985年,成本仅35万美元的《爱的甘露》正式公映,成为了第一部大规模公映的女同爱情长片,它的美好、幽默和对女性情欲的坦荡表达不仅征服了无数观众的心,也让很多人意识到两个女性的爱是可能的,而且并不总以悲剧结尾。这部叫好又叫座的先锋作为日后涌现的更多女同作品铺平了道路。
