‘The Fight,’ streaming online, Feb. 4-7

Reminds us that not all heroes wear capes

Feb. 4-7—WOODSTOCK—Billings Farm & Museum’s 11th annual Woodstock Vermont Film Series features “The Fight,” an inspiring, emotional look at four pivotal cases taken by the American Civil Liberties Union and the lawyers on the front lines.

Directors Elyse Steinberg, Josh Kriegman, and Eli Despres capture the rollercoaster ride of the thrill and defeat in these deeply human battles. When a mother is separated from her child, a soldier is threatened with losing his career, a young woman’s right to choose is imperiled at the pleasure of a government official, and the ability to exercise our basic right to vote is threatened, the consequences can be devastating to us and to future generations. “The Fight” celebrates the unsung heroes who fiercely work to protect our freedoms.

The Woodstock Vermont Film Series is produced by Billings Farm & Museum with generous support from local sponsors. Lead sponsors include the Woodstock Inn & Resort and the Ellaway Group.
