The Case Against 8

The documentary The Case Against 8 takes an in-depth look at the historic federal lawsuit filed in an effort to overturn Prop 8, California's discriminatory ban on same-sex marriage. Shooting over five years, with exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of the powerhouse legal team of David Boies and Ted Olson and the four plaintiffs in the suit, directors and producers Ben Cotner and Ryan White ("Good Ol' Freda," "Pelada") have created a powerful emotional account of the journey that took the fight for marriage equality all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The Case Against 8 won the 2014 Sundance Film Festival Directing Award in the U.S. Documentary category and the SXSW Audience Award in the Festival Favorites category.
