The Kids Are All Right
Nic and Jules had the perfect family, until they met the man who made it all possible.
Directed by Lisa Cholodenko
Produced by Mandalay Vision, 10th Hole Productions
A warm, character-driven family comedy-drama about unconventional bonds tested when a sperm donor enters the picture, balancing humor with genuine emotional friction.
Two women, Nic and Jules, brought a son and daughter into the world through artificial insemination. When one of their children reaches age, both kids go behind their mothers' backs to meet with the donor. Life becomes so much more interesting when the father, two mothers and children start to become attached to each other.
