The Freedom to Marry
This is the epic, untold story of how same-sex marriage became law of the land. Documenting one of the greatest civil rights stories of our time, THE FREEDOM TO MARRY is a nail-biting, behind-the-scenes story that traces the marriage equality movement's historic progress, and reveals the masterminds of the movement as they lead the fight to win same sex marriage throughout the United States. This is an inspirational tale of how people can actually make a difference and ultimately, a powerful playbook for social change.
The State of Marriage
The State of Marriage is the epic story of how legal legend Mary Bonauto partnered with small-town Vermont lawyers Beth Robinson and Susan Murray in a 2-decade struggle that built the foundation for the entire marriage equality movement. From winning groundbreaking LGBT legal recognition for same sex couples in 2000, to becoming the first state to enact same sex marriage through a dramatic legislative vote in 2009, the film shows in a very personal way how, as HRC national field director Marty Rouse says, “Beth, Susan and Mary really changed the course of American history.”
