About the film
In an act akin to civil disobedience, a group of women and their supporters organize their ordination to become Episcopal priests in 1974. The Church of the Advocate in Philadelphia welcomes them, but change is no small task. The women are harassed, some lose friends, and others are banned from stepping on church property.In this feature-length documentary film, we meet the women who challenge patriarchy within Christendom, and succeed in building a movement that transforms an age-old institution.
