Film in the Community: 'Raise Hell: The Life and Times of Molly Ivins'

Rocky Mountain Women’s Film, in partnership with Zonta of the Pikes Peak Area, are proud to present Film in the Community to celebrate Women’s History Month with ‘Raise Hell: The Life and Times of Molly Ivins.’ This film tells the story of media firebrand Molly Ivins, six feet of Texas trouble who took on the Good Old Boy corruption wherever she found it. Her razor sharp wit left both sides of the aisle laughing, and craving ink in her columns. She knew the Bill of Rights was in peril, and said “Polarizing people is a good way to win an election and a good way to wreck a country.” Molly’s words have proved prescient. Now it’s up to us to raise hell.

Through Film in the Community, films are screened throughout the year – free of charge – at diverse venues throughout Colorado Springs in collaboration with community partners.

All seating for Film in the Community events are first come, first served . Please let us know you are coming, so we can plan for this event. There is no need to print or bring your ticket with you to the event. Just arrive 15 minutes before the screening to secure your seat. At this time, for this event, proof of vaccination and masks will not be required.
