Synopsis: | Inspired by the ancient Greek anti-war comedy Lysistrata, The Boycott tells the story of Kathryn Blume, a woman trying to fight global warming and save the world-by telling the story of Lyssa Stratton, the First Lady of the United States launching a national sex strike to fight global warming and save the world. As The Boycott progresses, the story of Kathryn, trying to keep her emotional head above the waters of gloom and doom and create a piece of theater which will make a difference, interweaves with the story of Lyssa, who has to take on her indifferent husband, a hostile press, and a romantic rival who's not only in bed with the President, but with the darkest powers of the oil industry.
