The documentary follows the story of the LGBT community and human rights supporters in Idaho as they fight for the addition of sexual orientation and gender identity to the Idaho Human Rights Act, which has been a long-standing demand since 2006. Despite repeated promises from lawmakers that they would address the issue, the community has been met with silence and excuses, leading to a growing sense of urgency and frustration. The documentary chronicles the community's decision to take a stand and engage in civil disobedience, using symbolism such as covering their mouths to represent the ways in which their voices have been silenced.
