Lesbians on the Loose is a documentary we made in 2007 about the Australian publication LOTL. Started in 1989, LOTL is Australia's only magazine for lesbians, bisexuals and queer women. Over its 20+ year history, LOTL has united and divided the lesbian 'community' and documented the change in attitudes and acceptance for gay women in Australia. This film is a herstory, a conversation, a critique and a celebration of a groundbreaking publication. Features interviews with Joan Nestle, Frances Rand, Barbara Farrelly, DJ Kate Monroe, Christine Manfield, Nic Van Dyke, Clover Moore and Tanya Plibersek.
