Ahead of the Curve

I definitely recommend this documentary to everyone. It's a story about the power of a community and the importance of coming together and fight for our rights and goals.

Those are a few of the adjectives that describe this wonderful walk down memory lane. Curve founder Frances Stevens explores the glossy past of the world's No. 1 selling lesbian magazine as well as what it means to be a lesbian today. Does the community still need Curve? From thoughtful discussions with diverse, multi-generational activists and celebrities, Frances finds her answer. The film is full of fun archival footage as well. Jen Rainin is a masterful director and writer. Oh, and interviews with Melissa Etheridge, Suzanne Westenhoefer, Lea DeLaria, and more. "Ahead of the Curve" is the perfect way to kick off Pride Month. Enjoy!

Ahead of the Curve is about a bold woman who started a wildly impactful lesbian magazine. The film includes wonderful 90s nostalgia and a thoughtful exploration of the future of lesbian visibility. I crave stories like this - women charting their own path and carving out space to make this world more inclusive!

A thoughtful glimpse into lesbian culture, informed by the story of Curve Magazine's pioneering publisher, Franco Stevens. A must see for those who champion equality, equity and inclusion .

This documentary is a heartwarming glimpse into the pages of queer herstory. A must-watch for queers, dykes, lesbians, and our allies! I loved getting CURVE magazines growing up, and now I know the inspirational story behind its creation. #VisibilityMatters.
