Our New Short Documentary Project ‘Queerspawn’

We are beginning work on a short doc that will highlight the experiences of the grown children of the trailblazing OG ‘Lesbian Game Changers’ generation, the first group to intentionally create their own alternative families outside the heterosexual norm. This film will help light the path for future generations of Queer families with children.
