Overview
In the spring of 2004, Massachusetts began the final battle of its journey towards legalizing same-sex marriage.

Also includes interviews with active opponents attempting to discourage the movement (& failing, of course). Premiered at the Independent Film Festival of Boston in April 2005, just a month short the decision's one-year anniversary.
