Where We Stand

Where We Stand follows Abby Hansen, a stay-at-home mom turned vocal advocate for Ordain Women as she navigates the repercussions of her unpopular activism against her church in her predominantly Mormon suburb. Where We Stand is also the coming of age story of Ordain Women as an organization itself—from a humble website to an internationally recognized activist group.

The film is not just for Mormons. It is not just for feminists. It is for anyone who has questioned what it means to believe and to belong.

Filmmaker Notes:

Too often, the media positions progressives against religious conservatives. I think most people – myself included – find that divide too simple. Documentary film gives stories space to be as complicated as they are in life. Where We Stand is just that kind of story.

Where We Stand also features female main characters at a time when women-centered stories are in short supply.

And finally, Where We Stand arrives during a fascinating moment as the Mormon church works to incorporate more gender inclusive policy.
