What Bridegroom Is About

Shane and Tom had lived together for years. When Tom died falling from a roof, Shane was not let into the hospital, was not invited to the funeral and found he had no claim on anything from their life together, because in law they were nothing to each other. The documentary frames this not as a legal case but as the account of the one left behind. It began with a video Shane posted online that was watched millions of times. What it describes happened before same-sex marriage was recognised nationally in the United States, which is exactly where its force comes from.
