synopsis
In this disturbing documentary, the silence is broken surrounding sexual violence against lesbians. Through personal interviews, the film explores homophobia-fueled harassment and sexual violence, as well as the perpetuation of such violence through anti-gay activism and attitudes. "A very touching tape. It provokes the desire to protest, to change society, to go out and picket, to cry out loud -- to fight for personal freedom and the right to choice" (Roberto Olivo, New York Native).
