Des hommes et des femmes, nés dans l'entre-deux-guerres, ils n'ont aucun point commun sinon d'être homosexuels et d'avoir choisi de le vivre au grand jour, à une époque où la société rejetait l'homosexualité. Ils ont aimé, désiré, lutté, pour se faire reconnaître. Aujourd'hui, ils racontent ce que fut cette vie insoumise, partagée entre la volonté de rester des gens comme les autres et l'obligation de s'inventer une liberté pour s'épanouir.

Wilkinson had a life partner, Fannie. But her family lawyer was taking her money, and her artwork almost became lost when she was committed to an insane asylum, where she spent the last thirty years of her life. After she was sent to the institution, her artwork as well as all her other things were put in trunks and shipped to a relative in West Virginia, where they were kept in an attic for forty years.

The film opens at a meeting of the Board of Chosen Freeholders of Ocean County, New Jersey. Ocean County resident and New Jersey police officer Lieutenant Laurel Hester has been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, and expected to live only another year, she wishes to pass on her pension to her domestic partner of five years, Stacie Andree. Although New Jersey counties have the option to extend pension benefits to domestic partners, Ocean County Freeholders will not do this. In protest, the state's LGBT civil rights organization, Garden State Equality, organizes hundreds of people to speak out at each of the Freeholders' meetings. The crowds Garden State Equality organizes get bigger and more vociferous at each meeting.

Ce film documentaire raconte le destin de deux jeunes femmes, Emma Pitoizet et Thérèse Pierre, professeures toutes les deux, dans les années 1930 et qui tentent de construire ensemble une vie à la fois engagée et amoureuse. L’été 35, elles font « le voyage en URSS » et songent à adopter un enfant. Leur émancipation va se transformer en apprentissage douloureux puis en épreuve. En 40, après avoir brutalement rompu, elles se trouvent confrontées à la catastrophe : Emma, mariée, vivra dans une Alsace annexée par l’Allemagne nazie, et s’y reniera dans la douleur. Thérèse s’engagera dans la Résistance en Bretagne. Arrêtée par la Gestapo, elle meurt sous la torture en 43. Elle n’a pas parlé.

Au début de la guerre froide aux États-Unis, l'homosexualité est encore considérée comme une maladie psychiatrique et la sodomie est passible de prison dans de nombreuses régions du pays. Pour débarrasser de « ces pervers », le gouvernement organise donc une « chasse aux sorcières » qui vise à débusquer et renvoyer les homosexuels qui travaillent dans la fonction publique. En 1950, le sous-secrétaire d'État John Peurifoy informe ainsi le public qu'il a renvoyé quatre-vingt onze gays et lesbiennes du Département d'État…
