Sundance Film Festival
January 28th, 2007
I know this has nothing to do with ice cream or Ireland, but one of my best friends in the States, Cynthia Wade, has won a special jury prize at the Sundance Film Festival for her documentary film, Freeheld. Based upon Laurel Hester, a dying police lieutenant who wants to leave her pension benefit to her same-sex partner, the film is about love and battling injustice. If you want to support the film or get more information, click here.
I am so proud of you, Cynthia. Well done!

Ironic that I have to go to an Irish blog to find out something of interest here in the States :). That looks like a great documentary. I will definitely be watching for it on the festival circuit!
