What happens

Inlaws & Outlaws is a documentary by filmmaker and oral historian Drew Emery that weaves together the true stories of couples and singles—both gay and straight—to create a collective narrative of stories of love, loss and belonging. The film was produced by Larry Schlessinger, Lisa Halpern, and Emery for the True Stories Project, Emery's production company. The original version of the film premiered at the Seattle International Film Festival in May 2005. After a successful run in the festival circuit, the film was edited further and received its theatrical premiere in July 2007 at the Seattle Cinerama. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
