Description
On the 23rd of May 2015, the people of Ireland made history by becoming the first nation in the world to introduce marriage equality by popular vote. Of the almost 2 million Irish people who went to the polls to cast their vote, a staggering 62% of people voted yes. As the historic vote was declared, the joyous scenes from Dublin Castle and across Ireland made headlines around the world.

The referendum outcome was about more than the votes cast in its favour; the result was about changing the 'real lives' of the largest minority in Ireland, the LGBT+ Community. The outcome also became a notable achievement for the Irish. The result is something to be proud of, an expression of love and acceptance and a declaration of care and defense for so many Irish men and women who had before felt unequal and unheard.

Colin Murphy's documentary drama charts the 35-year-old struggle for LGBT+ Rights in Ireland, culminating in the marriage equality referendum, taking in voices from across the whole of Ireland.
