What We Do For Family

Synopsis

Alex and Sam want a baby, which is tricky when you're both cisgender women. Fortunately, Leslie is willing to help out. On the quest to become a sperm donor for his beloved friends, Leslie explores the process and lengths to which queer people must go to create a nuclear family. The baby-to-be is the embodiment of the chosen family, created deliberately and with such love, within the irregular shape of a chosen family.
