In a silenced Ireland, a community of lesbians builds an underground network of helplines – offering connection, survival, and defiance through the simple act of answering the phone.
LESBIAN LINES reveals a hidden history. The calls, recorded in handwritten notes, were preserved during a time of profound constitutional change in Ireland, when women were fighting for their rights in a restrictive and conservative society.
Through an ensemble of original helpline volunteers and actors, this little- known history is brought vividly to life, becoming a moving, joyful, and powerful archive built from collective memory. Ultimately, it is a story of community, connection, and the transformative power of listening.
