"Combining scholarly exploration with real-life stories... filmmaker Daniel Karslake profiles five mainstream American Christian families - including those of former House Majority leader Richard Gephardt and Anglican Bishop Gene Robinson - who grappled with issues of faith, sexuality, choice and love when their gay sons and daughters came out to them. The film tackles the anti-gay arguments of Biblical literalists, examining oft-cited verses and stories with the expert input of such respected theologians as Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Reverend Peter Gomes of Harvard, Orthodox Rabbi Steve Greenberg and Reverend Dr. Laurence Keene of Disciples of Christ."

The topic of homosexuality and gay rights has been a controversial one already on the AWEARNESS blog. In just the past few months, Kenneth Cole model Theo Kogan has spoken out about the tragic case of Lawrence King and Liza Sabater has written about the issue of same sex marriage.
