Join us for the screening of LILLY, a panel discussion, and reception featuring film director Rachel Feldman (via Zoom), executive producer Wendy Federman, and Academy Award Nominee Patricia Clarkson, moderated by entrepreneur, philanthropist, and producer Cheri Kaufman.
LILLY is a poor, Alabama tire factory worker whose singular goal is to lift her family into the middle class. Toward that goal, she endures a dehumanizing work environment, plagued by pervasive harassment, for the sake of that paycheck. But as retirement approaches, Lilly makes a startling revelation; for twenty years the company has been paying her only half of what her male counterparts receive. Outraged, Lilly’s fight for justice takes her all the way to the Supreme Court and the power corridors of Congress. With a heart-stirring love story at its center, LILLY follows the transformation of an ordinary citizen into the face of an issue, illuminating the personal cost of activism.
