Our House (DVD) NEW

Product Description What is it like to grow up with Gay or Lesbian parents? Today, there are millions of children in the United States who fit that description. These families are at the heart of debates in courtrooms, schools and places of worship around the country as Americans struggle to define family values. Our House is a groundbreaking documentary that explores what it's like to grow up with gay or lesbian parents. Traveling to urban, rural and suburban communities in Arizona, Arkansas, New Jersey and New York, director Meema Spadola (the daughter of a lesbian mom and the director of Breasts: A Documentary) profiles the sons and daughters of five families - African American, Latino and white; Mormon, Christian and Jewish - who illustrate some of the diversity of America's gay and lesbian families. Review Real kids - how they are forced to think about what kids don't have to and how they have to deal with the world's ideas about their parents. --San Francisco Examiner Highly recommended! --Library Journal Uplifting! --Entertainment Weekly
