The movie “Let Her Speak,” announced in November, will follow Davis on June 25, 2013, the day she held a 13-hour filibuster to stop a measure that would have further restricted abortion rights in Texas.

A year later, now firmly entrenched in the national spotlight, Davis ran for governor, but lost to Greg Abbott by more than 20 percentage points.
