Boycott

Award-winning director Julia Bach lifts the edge of secrecy by revealing a movement of conservative lawmakers and lobbyists in the United States who manage to restrict free speech. Thirty-three states have introduced anti-boycott laws that require individuals and companies seeking public contracts to sign a pledge not to boycott Israel. An Arkansas journalist, an Arizona lawyer, and a Texas speech therapist who have heard they have to choose between work and political beliefs are starting a court battle. Their stories touch the heart of a pressing national problem and show how the right to free speech can be redefined in American society for generations to come.
