Wolfe Video has set an April 9th US DVD release date for the documentary Love Free Or Die, about retired Episcopalian Bishop Gene Robinson, who caused great controversy in 2004 when he became the first priest in an openly gay relationship to be consecrated as a bishop in a major Christian denomination.
His ordination threatened to cause a schism in the worldwide communion, with many saying being gay and in a relationship was incompatible with the Christian faith. However Robinson didn’t let that put him off, and over the years has become increasingly vocal in the civil rights struggle, getting married and calling on those who use faith to say being gay is wrong to realise that they are incorrect.
The documentary won a Special Jury Prize at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival. Take a look at the trailer above.
