Yezak describes the film as "a comprehensive look at the unfair treatment of homosexuals by our society".[1] The film examines the treatment of homosexuals by social and government standards in the United States.

Announcement

The film was announced on January 9, 2012 and the promotional trailer titled "The Gay Rights Movement" went viral.[2] After launching a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter, the film raised its entire budget of $150,000 USD within 48 hours and went on to raise a total of $155,435 as of February 28, 2012.

However, as of 2016, the documentary itself has not been produced. On 1 June 2014, Yezak reported on Twitter that "No release date yet.
