the film

The story of Phyllis Lyon’s end of life, her community of care, and the documentary that needs to be made to tell it.

Take a minute to see what we’re about!

Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon spent decades dragging one word after another out of the shadows and into the center of social change:
lesbian, woman, feminist.
And finally: old.
This film tells the story of a remarkable care-giving response in their community.
