CGiii Comment

This is the extraordinary story of a gay couple using a surrogate mother to create a family. Despite it is forbidden and highly controversial in France, Christophe and Bruno accepted to be filmed during the whole adventure of surrogacy, during more than a year, from the meeting with the surrogate to the birth. More than a year of comings and goings between Paris and Portland ( Oregon, an American state that allows surrogacy ), a clandestine and a very risky way to create a family, raising many issues… For sure, surrogacy, and especially for a gay couple, is stirring a major public debate.
