Description


Gay Fathers--Twin Sons follows the story of a gay male couple fighting to raise their Canadian-born twins in the United States. Each partner had fathered one twin via egg donation and surrogacy, but only one parent was a US citizen, leaving one child without a biological American parent. And, thus, the fight for citizenship began.
