Cast Off

"Cast Off" is the true story of Lee Campbell, an undereducated housewife in the mid-70s, who risks exposing her state-sponsored secret, her rehabbed reputation, and everyone she holds dear in her "new life." She is driven to find other mothers like her to invite them to follow her half-baked vision for an organization that is the first of its kind in the world. Breaking one taboo after another, this unique band of mothers invents words and reveals hidden stories. As they help tens of thousands of people, they recruit professionals who "get" that a socially-sacred institution is overdue for a reform that will affect generations to come. Along the way, Lee finds her voice and her spirit, and she exercises smarts she didn't know she had.
