在这部人父之梦纪录片片中,Canada is one of only five countries in the world where same-sex marriage is legal. Still, some, if not most people, are uncomfortable with the idea of openly gay men raising children. Fatherhood Dreams takes the audience into the day-to-day lives of Scott, Steve, Randy and Drew, who are fathers through surrogacy, co-parenting and adoption. Their private journey through fatherhood forces them to deal with much larger issues, including the legal aspects of surrogacy, the complexity of open adoption, and the battles concerning the official recognition of multi-parent families. Fatherhood Dreams also gives a voice to the children - including an outspoken four-year-old named Kizea and teenager Jazz.
This documentary gives the viewer full access to three families headed by gay fathers. Randy and Drew, a Canadian married couple, learn the ropes as they adopt a baby boy; Steve co-parents his daughters with two lesbian mothers; while Scott, on his own, becomes a surrogate father to twins.
