Heightened Scrutiny

From the venue:

Out On Film, Atlanta Pride, Lambda Legal and Craig Hardesty are proud to present the acclaimed and timely "Heightened Scrutiny," a success at this year's Sundance Film Festival.

Fearless civil rights lawyer Chase Strangio battles at the Supreme Court for transgender adolescents’ access to life-saving healthcare, confronting not only the legal system but also a media landscape that distorts public perception and threatens the fight for trans rights.  “Heightened Scrutiny”  follows Strangio, ACLU attorney and the first out trans person to argue before the Supreme Court, as he fights a high-stakes legal battle to overturn Tennessee’s ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth (United States v. Skrmetti).
