In 1990, with a fist full of credit cards, a lucky run at the horse track, and chutzpah for days, Franco Stevens launched Curve, the best-selling lesbian lifestyle magazine ever published. Decades later, when a fading legacy and disabling injury cause Stevens to reassess her life, she sets out on a journey to learn about today’s LGBTQIA activists to help determine the path forward.

A virtual panel discussion with directors Jen Rainin, Rivkah Beth Medow, and subject Franco Stevens took place on Friday, April 30 at 6pm
