Synopsis
A documentary about two men who for nearly fifty years wanted nothing more than the chance to love each other. From 1949 to 1964, James Egan single-handedly led a media campaign for the repeal of laws criminalizing same-sex activity in Canada. But when the media spotlight became too bright for the private Jack, the two disappeared from the political arena, only to resurface in 1994 for one last battle, a highly publicized legal case over spousal rights.
