(USA, 1984, 45 mins)
35mm
Directed By: Debra Chasnoff,Kim Klausner
RESTORATION WORLD PREMIERE
25th Anniversary Screening
One of the first movies about lesbian families, CHOOSING CHILDREN is an emotionally potent film that challenges society's definition of family by exploring the ways lesbians are raising children in couples, alone, with gay men and in extended families of friends.
Since the passing of Proposition 8 in California and similar bans against LGBT marriages and adoptions across the United States, illustrations of healthy LGBT families are crucial in breaking down stereotypes and ensuring the civil liberties of all families. CHOOSING CHILDREN began the fight against xenophobia and homophobia in 1984, but its work is not yet complete.
- Kristin Pepe, Legacy Project Manager
