De lesbische Cheryl is een filmmaakster die in een videotheek werkt. Ze raakt geobsedeerd door een actrice die in de jaren '30 van de 20e eeuw furore maakte als the watermelon woman. Cheryl besluit een documentaire over haar te maken. Tijdens het maken van de documentaire wordt ze verliefd op Diana.
Nee, helaas is The Watermelon Woman nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
