Out in the Night is a documentary that tells the story of a group of young African American lesbian friends who are out, one hot August night in 2006, in the gay friendly West Village in New York City. When they are violently and sexually threatened by a man on the street, they defend themselves and are charged and convicted in the courts and in the media as a 'Gang of Killer Lesbians'.
Followed by Q&A with Director Blair Dorosh-Walther and documentary subjects. More to follow.
