About the film:
Founders of the modern lesbian rights movement, Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon were partners in love and political struggle for more than fifty years. This film reveals Del and Phyl’s passionate public activism as well as their charming private relationship.
When Martin and Lyon courageously launched the Daughters of Bilitis in 1955, it became the first public organization for lesbians in America. With incisive interviews, rare archival images and warmhearted humor, No Secret Anymore traces the emergence of lesbians from the fear of discovery to an expectation of equality.
