Free and open to the public. This screening is presented by the Episcopal Diocese of West Tennessee and Church of the Holy Communion, with generous support from St. Mary's Episcopal School. About the Film
In an act of civil disobedience, a group of women and their supporters organize their ordination to become Episcopal priests in 1974. The Church of the Advocate in Philadelphia welcomes them, but change is no small task. The women are harassed, threatened and banned from stepping on church property.
In this feature-length documentary film, we meet the women who succeed in building a movement that transforms an age-old institution, and challenges the very essence of patriarchy within Christendom.
