Synopsis

Turning the lens on four households, this documentary examines the effect of gender and sexual orientation on children, the dilemma of white fathers raising African American kids, the precariousness of surrogacy and adoption, and the opinions of extended families and the public. We follow a single man who confronts the isolation of raising at-risk kids in a largely childless gay neighborhood. We meet a healthcare worker who battles Florida state law to formalize his relationship to a boy he has been parenting for years and a couple who arranged to have a friend bear their child and are now weathering divorce.
