Description

Lennie Gerber and Pearl Berlin’s 46-year love story is the improbably true story of two girls growing up in Brooklyn in the 1940s, falling in love in the Midwest, and making a life together in North Carolina. Lennie is an attorney focusing on LGBT issues, and Pearl is a retired professor working on various political issues. The film includes public and private moments, interviews, archival material, and sequences shot during their efforts to defeat North Carolina’s anti-gay marriage amendment.
