Since nobody had made a film about the leading lesbian filmmakers of the last half-century, Caroline Berler decided to do it herself. Among those profiled are Barbara Hammer, Su Friedrich, Rose Troche, Cheryl Dunye, Yoruba Richen, Desiree Akhavan, Vicky Du, film critic B. Ruby Rich and Jenni Olson.

This screening in the We Are Here season is accompnaied by the short Sex Lies and Religion, which explores the underground world of the now-extinct lesbian bars in 1980s Los Angeles.
