Murray State University Alliance, in conjunction with
the MSU Women's Center, and
Institutional LGBT Liaison Jody Cofer
are proud to present the Academy Award-winning documentary
Freeheld
The film tells the story of Lt. Police Detective Laurel Hester from Ocean County, Maryland. After 25 years on the force, Lt. Hester is diagnosed with cancer and spends the remainder of her life fighting to ensure her pension benefits get transferred to her domestic partner, Stacie. The film includes everything you can image from political drama to personal sacrifice.
"Freeheld is simply an amazing documentary, a true piece of unscripted reality, with all its blemishes and beauty intact. It is a documentary that pays fitting tribute to a true hero, a woman who refused to compromise and who ultimately helped to secure for all of us a little bit more of the equality we all richly deserve.”—Edge Boston
“A film like this can shine the light to affect change for all folks – not just some of us.” – Cindy Stone, faculty, Indiana University
