Political Animals is a brand new documentary that tells the remarkable story of four extraordinary women who were the very first openly gay legislators in California. These brave pioneers had to contend with fierce and hostile opposition that often got very personal and nasty, but nevertheless managed to author Bills that started to change the lives of LGBT people and our community at large. It’s a compelling story that not just details an important part of recent LGBT history, but reminds us how so very indebted we are so are to these phenomenal and selfless visionary women.
This truly wonderful film is a Spotlight Selection, and also one of our Top Picks, for the upcoming Provincetown International Film Festival #PIFF. We are particularly psyched about this as before the Screening filmmaker Jonah Markowitz and one of the movie’s ‘stars’ Senator Carole Migden will be making tracks to PTV’s studio to talk to us about their very astonishing story.
Here is queerguru’s review of Political Animals for P.T.V. and keep watching this space to see our interview very soon.
