Report on the release of "Word Is Out" about 26 gay men and women across the United States, directed by Peter Adair and the Mariposa Film Group of San Francisco. Made in the 1970s, this is the first film made shedding light on the lives of gay people on an individual basis, unmasking traditional and conventional stereotypes over what it is to be gay or lesbian. Includes actuality of an interview with Pat, a 53 year lesbian woman who spoke of her experiences growing up with the full knowledge and acceptance that she was a lesbian, and several stories from her days in WAAC (Women's Army Auxiliary Corps), and her perception of the lines of gender roles as she had seen them to be from the 40s to the 70s. Also speaks of the contained feeling felt by women who moved to San Francisco as their only refuge, and feared being trapped within only those bounds where they were accepted.
