In 2014, while shooting a film about lesbians and aging, director Deborah Craig stumbles across octogenarian Sally Gearhart living alone in a ramshackle cabin in the Northern California woods. She is immediately charmed by this outrageous and hilarious character, but soon discovers to her surprise that Gearhart is a once-beloved lesbian-feminist icon who fought center-stage with Harvey Milk during one of the most terrifying, thrilling and revolutionary periods in the struggle for gay rights. Craig embarks upon a quest to ensure that she isn’t forgotten by history, but with Sally nothing is quite as it seems. Instead of a traditional bio-pic of a hidden figure, “Sally” becomes something between a wild lesbian safari and a timely and deeply-moving meditation on the tensions inherent in revolutionary movements: Ideological principles versus human realities, separatism versus mainstreaming, and throwing down the gauntlet versus reaching across the aisle.
