Political Animals tells the story of one of the largest civil rights struggles of this century – the gay rights movement - through the eyes of four elected women, often left out of LGBT histories until now. An emotionally charged film, it follows four groundbreaking lesbians who took the fight for the causes most personal to them and their communities off the streets and into the halls of government. Fierce, determined, focused and passionate, these women had the courage and foresight to begin the critical work of legal rights for the LGBT community .
Producer, Chris Panizzon expected to be in attendance for a Q&A after the film.
