SYNOPSIS
Written by Guinevere Turner, Wedlocked is a farcical comedy that takes on the ridiculous
laws that governed gay divorce before the 2015 SCOTUS ruling in favor of marriage equality.
Inspired by true stories, three women work their way out of a divorce triangle they never
signed up for.
Sydney and Cameron are a happily engaged couple looking forward to their big day. There’s
one obstacle…Sydney is still married to Lisa, and as their home state won’t recognize their
marriage, a divorce is impossible! Not one to be held back by unfair legislation, Sydney
outsmarts the web of laws keeping her tied down and unable get divorced.

DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT
it was not.
I was engaged in early 2012,
and my fiancée tried to convince
me to elope with her in NYC,
since New York had legalized
gay marriage the year before.
After our breakup in early 2013, I
realized that had we eloped, we
would have been stuck and
unable to divorce until gay
marriage was
(re)legalized in California. Like
many LGBTQ couples, I hadn’t
considered all of the implications
of getting married in a state
where same-sex marriage was
legal while living in a state where
I also have a couple of good friends in Pennsylvania who were stuck in marriages, one for
three years and one for ten years. It is important to me that this topic comes to light and I am
passionate about starting a powerful dialogue. It is time we talk about true marriage equality,
which includes divorce.
