Summary
Covers the amazing love and relationship story of Edie and Thea, from the closeted ’60′s to a legal marriage in Canada prior to Thea’s decline in health due to MS (multiple sclerosis).

My Thoughts (with potential spoilers!)
One of the most well-rounded and compelling documentaries of the overall experience and complexities of how two people can create a life together that is greater than one they would have probably had individually. Along with reflections against LGBT history, it also portays of the ups and downs of being in a relationship with one partner with severe health issues which shows that Love makes it all very worth it.

I watched this with my best dyke friends who also agree that this is a very worthwhile watch.
