Story Overview

Freeheld is a powerful drama based on the true story of Laurel Hester, a respected police detective whose life takes a devastating turn when she is diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. Confronted with the reality that her time is limited, Laurel is forced to face not only her illness but also a rigid and discriminatory system that denies her fundamental rights.

As her health rapidly deteriorates, Laurel’s greatest concern becomes the future security of her longtime partner, Stacie Andree. Determined to ensure that her hard-earned pension benefits are transferred to the woman she loves, Laurel embarks on a difficult legal and emotional battle against local authorities who refuse to recognize their relationship.

Supported by activists, colleagues, and members of the community, Laurel’s struggle evolves into a broader fight for equality, dignity, and justice. Freeheld delivers an emotionally charged portrait of love, courage, and resistance, highlighting how one woman’s personal fight helped expose systemic injustice and inspired change far beyond her own life.
