When We Rise (2017)

"When We Rise" is the ABC miniseries that chronicles decades of the LGBTQ rights movement in America. The show follows real-life activists through personal battles and political turning points. These moments reshaped the fight for equality. Rachel Griffiths leads a sprawling ensemble that brings genuine dramatic heft to the material. Mary-Louise Parker also turns up among the cast, alongside Fiona Dourif and Emily Skeggs. The archive holds four scene clips pulled from the series. Each one is a brief but notable bit of skin. The show focuses on history and advocacy over titillation. Given that, these clips stand out precisely because they're rare. Fans of any of these four actresses will find something worth seeking out here.
