The film's director, Maya Newell, who was raised by two moms, says she hopes the film will change the often polarizing conversation around kids of same-sex couples. 'We felt like personal narratives were the way to disarm that.'
'We were sick of the argument really, we wanted to try and offer something that was less about extreme opinions and this kind of political football of 'Are the kids alright?'' Mars says. Charlotte Mars, the film's producer, says that approach was a way to move beyond the debate.
The film chronicles the kids' everyday lives over a three year period.
