Anton A moving story of two people in love, Edward and Vincent, and their fight for equal rights. It's about people who determined to celebrate their relationship on their terms. "Saints and Sinners" explores the social, political and religious aspects of same-sex marriage and examines its effect on American society. It shows how unfairly the Catholic Church treats gays and lesbians. (For Edward, who grew up as an altar boy, and Vincent, who was baptized at Old St. Patrick's Cathedral in Little Italy and who attends Sunday Mass regularly, getting married outside the Catholic tradition is not an option.) Powerful argument for legalization of gay marriage.

Alan Edward and Vincent are both practicing Catholics and want to get married, to each other. Even though the legal battles for the acceptance of Gay Marriage is in the news everyday, this documentary does not focus on that. Rather, the focus of the film is on how these men want their marriage to be in accordance with the sacrament of the Catholic church.Not only do they fight to find a priest willing to perform the ceremony, but also fight to be the first Catholic Homosexual wedding listed in the New York Times' Style Section. It's a real piece showing how real people are dealing with a very real struggle for tolerance and acceptance.No matter what your position on the subject is, this film does show how this religious struggle affects people.
