At FRED microphones we had the opportunity to have a chat with Sonam Larcin, director of “Ce qui nous lie/The Bond Between Us“, before its first screening at the 39° Lovers Film Festival in Turin.
Sonam Larcin introduced his documentary about same-sex parenting, started from desire to have a child with his husband. The film explores the feelings and the emotions from different points of views, as friends and other couples, searching the bond between a child and the parents.
The Belgian director also talked about the situation around the world on this topic. Sonam Larcin hopes his documentary helps sharing the most important lesson about parenting: love the child unconditionally, regardless every other aspect.
Plot
While he wishes to have a child with the man he shares his life with, the director embarks on a journey to meet families. What if all it took was to change one's perspective for a realm of possibilities to arise from an impossibility?
