Sydney is preparing to host thousands of people at the World Pride festival this week, a rainbow spectacle celebrating LGBTIQ+ community and culture.

To celebrate the events, we will bring you a special love story.

Dr Ilan Buchman, a social worker, will share with audience his love story with his husband Oscar Shub.

They overcame many challenges as a gay couple that met in 1971 in Israel and almost 50 years later were married legally by a Rabbi, in a big wedding at the Emanuel Synagogue in Sydney.

Their wedding was the very first Jewish same sex legal marriage in Australia, and they are proud that a documentary depicting their wedding and journey together was screened around Australia
