Other Side, with Guest Speaker Dr. Bob Munson from the USAFA

Each month we present a film from a past Festival on the screen at Rocky Mountain Women’s Film office inside the Lincoln School. This month join us for OTHER SIDE, featured at the 2025 Festival. These screenings are free and open to the public with a suggested donation of $5.

After three separate cancer diagnoses, and undergoing nauseating and difficult treatment for each one, Connecticut-based activist Lynda Bluestein set her sights on medical aid in dying.

This compassionate end-of-life option was not available in her home state, so she filed a lawsuit against the state of Vermont to gain access to their Death With Dignity law, Act 39 – and she won.

A rich portrait of a fearless activist, matriarch, and fallible human, this feature documentary follows Lynda and her family over the course of a year as they navigate life and prepare for her inevitable death. But will her life end the way she intends it to?

Guest Speaker. Dr. Bob Munson from the USAFA will participate in a Q&A after the film.
