In a small corner of the UK, a battle is being waged. A battle for love. A battle to be EQUAL.  

Northern Ireland remains the only place in the UK and Ireland where civil marriage for same-sex couples is illegal. As countries around the world legislate for change, couples there are still fighting for equality. This powerful documentary is a reminder that even on our own doorstep, many battles have yet to be won.
