An unprecedented decision.

An all-star cast.

Starring George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Martin Sheen, “”8″” is compiled by Academy Award earning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black (Dairy, J. Edgar) and directed by acclaimed acting professional and director Rob Reiner.

The play is a robust account of the case filed from the American Federation for Equal Rights (AFER) in the U.S. Region Court this year 2010 to overturn Proposition 8, a constitutional amendment that eliminated the rights of about 8 same-sex lovers to marry in the condition of California. Framed around the trial’s historical closing arguments in June 2010, 8 provides an intimate look what unfolded when the problem of same-sex marriage was on trial.
