Fatherhood
6.9
“A straight story about a queer family”
Between 1979 and 2016, trans people in Norway were forced to undergo sterilisation, depriving them of their right to bear children. Kris has dreamed of becoming a father since kindergarten. Anticipating a euphoric pregnancy, he exudes a sage positivity despite past and present injustices. Together with Sindre and David, and their devoted families, Kris becomes a part of the resistance forging change
