Why do you love, and what are you doing about it?' These words of Bill T. Jones (Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company) open IT HAD TO BE YOU, a film that looks at three Philadelphia Gayborhood couples, two male of differing generations and one female couple, as they negotiate life, death, love and why we're here.
