"Lesbian
Grandmothers from Mars!"
One Couple's Journey For Marriage Equality."
LESBIAN GRANDMOTHERS FROM MARS is an out-of-this-world
story about a down-to-earth lesbian couple who take to the trails, freeways, and
back roads of America to rally support for gay marriage. Supported by their
family, community, and circle of friends, life partners Carrie and Elisia get on
their bicycles and set off on the challenging Rainbow Ride Across America, from
Golden Gate Park in San Francisco to the finish line in New York City,
accompanied by filmmaker Keith Wilson.
On their three-month, cross-country adventure, Carrie and Elisia encourage
people to register to vote and to ask them to discuss the marriage civil rights
issue with friends and family. These remarkable women achieve their goal and
beyond, as they ride through America’s sleepy towns and make some much-needed
noise.
Some of the highlights (and lowlights) include: a warm greeting from the mayor
of Salt Lake City, Utah; an emotional protest outside the office of Colorado
Representative Marilyn Musgrave (author of the Federal Marriage Amendment); a
visit to Matthew Shepard’s Laramie, Wyoming; a counter-protest from Fred
Phelps and fifty of his flock in Topeka, Kansas; and a bike ride through
Manhattan to end the ride before an excited crowd and five TV news crews. These
inspiring grandmothers are far from the proverbial rocking chair, and it’s a
thrill to follow in their feisty footsteps.
