ASK NOT is a rare and compelling exploration of the effects of the U.S. Military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy. A provocative portrait of bravery amidst exclusion, ASK NOT reveals the personal stories of Americans willing to risk their lives for a country that punishes the act of coming out. Produced in collaboration with the Palm Center, the film features current and veteran gay soldiers who reveal how DADT affects them during their tours of duty. The film also explores how gay veterans and youth organizers are turning to forms of personal activism to overturn the policy.
