Married in Canada follows seven love stories, which reveal why getting married is
significant for many same-sex American couples prohibited from tying the knot in their
resident states. The couples and their families illustrate why overcoming the obstacles to
legal nuptials is worthwhile - despite the reality that once back home south of the border,
the newlyweds will remain merely 'married in Canada,' with their marital status going
unrecognized. With unfettered access to the brides and grooms on their wedding days,
the film follows the most meaningful ceremony of their lives. In this first-ever documentary
about human rights and cross-border same-sex marriage, Married in Canada explores the
strength and conviction of lovers in their fight for equality.
