Delwin Vriend, an Albertan teacher, was fired from his job specifically because he was gay. This spectacular documentary follows his fight against his own government for basic human rights and dignity, providing intriguing insight into the dramatic court decisions and judicial behaviour which caused widespread public furor during his legal battles. His eventual victory had widespread social impacts, not just in Alberta, or Canada, but around the globe. By deconstructing the experience of Delwin Vriend and other LGBTQ2S+ Canadians, this film explores not only an essential step forward for LGBT2QS+ rights in Canada, but reminds us why continued efforts for human rights are necessary – now more than ever.
