This powerful American documentary tells the poignant story of young gay couple Shane Bitney-Crone and Tom Bridegroom. Living out their Californian dreams together, their long-term relationship is cut short when Tom slips to his death from a rooftop. Without protection from marriage laws, Shane is ostracised and prohibited from attending Tom’s funeral by the Bridegroom family in Tennessee.
Featuring interviews with Shane, his family and friends and their large archive of home movies, this documentary creates an intimate portrait of the loving couple. At its heart this is a tragic love story that brings the importance of marriage equality into the spotlight.
