LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NYC PREMIERE American Richard Adams married Australian Tony Sullivan in Boulder, Colorado in 1975, during a brief period when same-sex marriage was legal in that state, and subsequently filed for a green card for Tony. After receiving an explicitly homophobic denial and an order for deportation, the couple filed the first federal lawsuit seeking equality in transnational LGBT marriage immigration cases. Thomas G. Miller’s film is a poignant portrait of a couple’s four decades of devotion despite overwhelming odds.

This screening is co-presented by NewFest, Human Rights Watch  &  The Nation.
