Raising Hell: The Children of Lesbian and Gay Parents

Last week I discussed the film Mom’s Apple Pie, which documented the role of lesbian moms in the early LGBT rights movement (and is now out on home video). Now comes word of Raising Hell, a half-hour documentary by Ed Webb-Ingall that profiles the experiences of the young adult and adult children of lesbian and gay parents in the U.K., starting back in the late 1960’s. No information yet on release dates or international distribution. Understanding our past helps us plan for the future. Maybe I’m biased by my training as a historian, but I really do believe that. It’s good to see filmmakers capturing not just lesbian and gay history, but the history of lesbian and gay parents and our children in particular. Thanks to One More Lesbian for this trailer.
