A gripping documentary that pivots on brutal familial homophobia ...

Super-lo-fi yet highly emotional.

This deeply moving documentary will melt the heart of anyone who sees it.

A poignant, powerful tale of first love and untimely death as well as a practical, frankly undeniable, plea for marriage equality.

[A] simply told but exceptionally moving documentary.
