This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
How to add a filter to only display posts between two dates (a backend filter).
Solution:
You need to insert two Query Filters in your View, one for each field.
You would specify that the start date should be less than TODAY(), and the end date is greater than TODAY().
Note that dates in filters are treated as numbers, and in the example we use the UNSIGNED number type.

How can I filter it?
In that case you need to insert two Query Filters in your View, one for each field.
You would specify that the start date should be less than TODAY(), and the end date is greater than TODAY().
