Teen children of a pair of lesbian mothers seek out their biological father and complications ensue. The emotional interplay among these five people is extremely complex and the director/writer...Lisa Cholodenko...provides us with an intelligent script and performances that do the premise justice.
No one here is reduced to anything less than a multi-dimensional person...all have good traits and bad. They navigate their way through this unusual trial following instincts and needs that ring true to me. Some of their decisions are foolish but she shows how most mistakes can be redeemed among people who genuinely care for each other.
Nice, intelligent, well-written, well-acted film.
