My Happy Family 2007

Directed by Ekaterina Kharlamova

This documentary, open and courageous, examines the challenges of lesbian motherhood in Russia. The film focuses on the first stage of parenthood, along with the decision of giving birth to a child in a same sex family, and a consideration of the options available to a lesbian couple in Russia. The two women welcome the audience (with the future baby's point of view) into their world, emotions, dreams and hopes.
