In Progress
Truth Be Told
90-Minute Documentary
Three women commissioners are racing to document two centuries of atrocities and discrimination against Vermont's Indigenous, disabled, and minority communities — one of only a handful of state-sanctioned truth commissions in U.S. history, working against an impending deadline. Their work exposes a hidden history that Vermont's is beginning to reckon with during a time of deep division in America.
