THE PHILADELPHIA ELEVEN, a largely unknown women's rights story, introduces viewers to the trailblazers who challenged the very essence of patriarchy within Christendom and successfully created a blueprint for lasting institutional change. The film chronicles how a group of women in the Episcopal Church shared a call to become priests. After two legislative votes to make it possible for women to be ordained failed, they organized their own ordination as priests in defiance of church norms. The Church of the Advocate, a Black urban church in North Philadelphia, welcomed them. A huge congregation witnessed their ordination service on July 29, 1974. Changing an institution based on 2,000 years of history was an enormous task. The women priests faced threats and harassment. Some lost family and friends, and others were banned from setting foot on church property. Their opponents repeatedly questioned whether they were "proper matter for ordination." Their ordination became not only a personal struggle but also a very public battle over whether women were qualified to lead. Despite the backlash, they successfully changed the church by asserting their leadership and a vision for a new way - on their own terms.

SHAKING IT UP: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF LIZ CARPENTER tells the inspirational story of an extraordinary woman who experienced and helped shape some of the most vivid moments and movements of the 20th century. Journalist, White House official, author, humorist, political activist, and feminist leader: over her 89 years of service, Liz Carpenter was often front and center where history was unfolding, leaving her own indelible mark on events and people. Hers is an inspiring story of blazing professional trails while pushing forward an agenda for women's rights, the environment, and political engagement that is highly relevant today. Her magnetic Texas-sized personality, political know-how, and legendary wit gave her an outsized impact on historical events, including the JFK assassination, the launch of Great Society programs, and more. Carpenter's high-profile leadership roles in the National Women's Political Caucus, at the historic National Women's Conference in 1977, and in the national campaign for ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment cemented her spot in American history. The film educates and inspires viewers to continue to shake things up in the ongoing quest for equal rights and human progress.
