The Case Against 8

This documentary is a behind-the-scenes look at the key players and events involved in Perry v. Schwarzenegger, the case that became the first federal marriage equality lawsuit to be decided by the Supreme Court.

With unparalleled access to the legal team (Ted Olson and David Boies, two famous American litigators from opposite sides of the political spectrum), the film provides the most thorough, intimate, and accurate portrayal of the federal fight for gay marriage, offering unprecedented insight into the justice system and the often mysterious process of taking a case to the Supreme Court of the United States.  The filmmakers also follow the plaintiffs in case, two gay couples and their families who find themselves at the center of the controversy over gay marriage rights.

Directors | Ben Cotner & Ryan White
