In 1980s Boston, three lesbians – a nurse, a civil rights lawyer and a therapist – fought against the stigma and discrimination experienced by people caught in the AIDS epidemic and gave care and dignity to those who were dying. Join us as we watch When the World Changed, followed by a Q&A with director Anderson Clark.

Doors and reception at 6:00pm, film begins at 6:30. The film is about 34 minutes long.
