The Lady and the Dale

Liz Carmichael's meteoric rise comes to a halt in 1974 when the promotion of her cutting-edge car, The Dale, exposes her criminal past.​

With Liz at the helm, the 20th Century Motor Car Company launches The Dale, which soon takes on a life of its own. Investigative reporters question the operation and its leader, leading to government attempts to reign in Liz's sales practices and more.

As law enforcement begins to close in on the 20th Century Motor Car Company, Liz once again goes on the lam--but she soon faces much media scrutiny, transphobia, and a lengthy, unpredictable trial.​

Liz's legacy as a trans woman, entrepreneur, and parent is contextualized within the broader history of transphobia.
