Friendly reminder **HBO To Air Prop 8 Documentary 'Case Against 8' Monday**

On Monday, premium cable network HBO will broadcast The Case Against 8, which documents the case to overturn Proposition 8, California's now-ended ban on gay marriage.

The Case Against 8 premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, where it won the Directing Prize for U.S. Documentary.

With unlimited access to the plaintiffs and the lawyers involved in the case, filmmakers Ben Cotner and Ryan White give audiences a behind-the-scenes look at the case's many twists and turns on the road to the Supreme Court.

California voters approved Proposition 8 in 2008, sparking massive protests in California and Utah, home to the Mormon Church which played a key role in its passage.
