In honor of International Women’s Day, Free Range Films will present “Anita: Speaking Truth to Power,” a timely and powerful film about Anita Hill, at 3 p.m. Sunday, March 11 at Ground Zero (16159 Clear Creek in Poulsbo).

Hill’s courageous testimony about the repeated acts of sexual harassment she endured while working with the U.S. Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas ignited a political firestorm about sexual harassment and power in the workplace that resonates powerfully today. Against a backdrop of sex, politics and race, “Anita: Speaking Truth to Power,” reveals the story of a woman who has empowered millions to stand up for equality and justice.

Directed by award-winning filmmaker Freida Mock, the film celebrates Hill’s legacy and provides a rare glimpse into her private life and career.

The screening is free. A discussion will be held afterward.
