In 1995, Jane Gillooly, an independent filmmaker from Boston, Massachusetts, interviewed Gordon, Santoro's daughters, and others for a documentary about Santoro's life, "Leona's Sister Gerri". The film was initially broadcast on the PBS series "P.O.V." on June 1, 1995. It was later screened at film festivals, opening in the United States on November 2, 1995. In the documentary, Leona expressed that she was initially shocked by the photograph's publication, but that "as years went by... thought it was good that it was printed."
