LGBT elected officials tell their stories in documentary ‘Breaking Through’

In the award winning documentary “Breaking Through,” filmmakers Cindy L. Abel and Michael Bruno take their camera to the elected men and women in Washington and across the nation who have played a key role in advancing LGBT equaltiy.

Though featuring politicians, “Breaking Through” isn’t about politics: it’s about people who feel fear and shame, yearning to live meaningful lives.

They reveal how they broke through barriers internally – daring to believe something different than what they were told – and externally to achieve the future they envisioned. By showing that “anything is possible,” they impact people from all walks of life.

“Breaking Through” will be released June 3 on DVD and VoD.
