The cinematic body of work, archive, and ongoing cultural impact of filmmaker Barbara Hammer — a pioneer in crafting lesbian stories and narratives through experimental cinema — are revisited through her films, soundscapes, archival footage, and personal records. The documentary centers Hammer as a prism of the cultural ecosystems around her — through the feminist and queer movements in 1970s San Francisco, the male-dominated New York art world of the 1980s, the New Queer Cinema movement of the 1990s, and expanded LGBTQIA+ representation in art and culture in the 2000s. By addressing sexuality, aging, illness, and love, Hammer transforms her own experiences into historical memory and continues to inspire new generations of artists to tell their stories.
