The Canadian film "Quand tombe la nuit" is a gay film about female romances in Western society. The heroine Camilla is placed at the critical point of eroticism, with austere theological teachings on one side and a mysterious circus of Luo Zhi's dreams on the other, and Patricia's intrusion is like a prophet who provokes her full senses. Guiding, developing, and waiting for the moment of decision, the two will eventually work together to build a dream. Director Patricia Rozema used different symbols to symbolize the gay relationship between Camilla and Patricia in the film. For example: in the scene where they make love, there is also a pair of circus trapeze performers performing some difficult movements in the film. The two trapeze figures symbolize the relationship between Camilla and Patrice – harmony, perfection and oneness, but also a certain level of danger. "Dangerous" also symbolizes homosexuality in real society, because it has not been recognized by the public and still belongs to a group that is regarded as an alien.

Martin: These... passing things.

Board President: So, we've covered abortion, church and state, predestination, drug abuse, prostitution - ah, yes, homosexuality. How do you approach the homosexuality problem, Camille?
Camille: Well, um, I'm not really sure I'd consider it a problem.
Martin: I like what you said over at Tom's, Camille said that it's important to love the sinner but hate the sin, so that you're allowed to feel the desire but not act on that desire.
Camille: Well, in hetero - in retro-spect, sorry - I've come to think that there's a lot of room for multiciplicity in God's creation.
Reverend DeBoer: You are aware that that is contrary to doctrine in this matter.
Camille: God... God cannot be so cruel as to decree that people like... like that can never, ever be contented. I mean, one's devotions are not entirely chosen.
