SYNOPSIS
Although it has been over 30 years since Family Pride was organized to support queer families in the States, the queer family still has not been able to establish its status as both a legal and a normal form of family. Following the lives of teenagers who have grown up in a queer family and called themselves ‘queer spawn’, this film delivers their perspectives on the meaning of life and family. Their confidence in the midst of a homophobic society shows audiences a thrilling moment of liberation. (Jay SOHN)
