Reel OUT: LGBT Film Festival - Tying the Knot

The gay marriage debate has been dominating the headlines in recent months; but this issue has also been dominating ordinary people's lives for years. And it's those people who take center stage in Jim de Shve's documentary "Tying the Knot," which makes the case for equal marriage rights by showing the personal stories of gay couples struggling for the same rights afforded to straight couples. The film, three years in the making, also puts the debate in a historical context.

The 7 PM showing will be followed by a discussion with Film Maker Jim de Seve. There will also be a 9 PM showing
