... breaking news

The film Inlaws & Outlaws: Marriage from the Inside. And Out will be shown at Tapestry.  From the website:

Inlaws & Outlaws captures the stories of people who have struggled to make loving, committed partnerships inside marriage, outside of marriage, and sometimes, in spite of marriage. Transcending the current debate on “gay marriage” and its attendant arguments of legitimacy and legality, the film creates an honest and compelling portrait of the state of modern marriage.

For more information see the film's website.
