Summary

This film takes a very personal look at Susan Parker and Wendy Scott's relationship and the controversy that would make their private life anything but private. Susan and Wendy are members of Wake Forest Baptist Church. In 1999, the couple decided they wanted to have a union ceremony in Wake Forest University's Wait Chapel, but the University told them no. Susan, Wendy, their church, and many others joined together to fight the school's decision in what would become a controversy that divided a community in North Carolina and made national headlines.
