Watch the award-winning documentary "9to5: The Story of a Movement" from the comfort of your home. Registrants will receive an email with a special link to the recording starting 2pm Friday, March 21.

Watch the award winning documentary from the comfort of your home! The documentary highlights the creation of the 9to5 movement, established to fight for workplace equity and against wage discrepancy and was the basis for the feature film, 9 to 5, starring Jane Fonda, Dolly Parton and Lily Tomlin. 

In the early 1970s, secretaries in Boston decided to fight against humiliating, harassing and illegal work environments. Their movement became national and is a largely forgotten story of U.S. twentieth century history. Director Julia Reichert was an Academy Award and Emmy Award winning documentarian.

The recording can be viewed starting at 2pm, Friday, March 21 through 11:59pm, Sunday, March 23. Registrants will receive an email with a special link to the recording.

This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Lemont Public Library District.
