New, award-winning LGBT knockout doc Political Animals will release on DVD and digitally on June 6th in the U.S. and Canada via Gravitas Ventures.
Political Animals celebrates the legendary civil rights victories of the first four openly gay elected California state politicians - all women - who took the fight for equality from the streets and into the halls of government to create social justice and equality. Fierce and determined, these women had the courage to create lasting social change.
This doc is more timely and important than ever as a celebration of how political activism and elected LGBT leaders can effect significant social equality.
