CGiii Comment
THE GUYS NEXT DOOR, a timely feature-length documentary, offers a provocative alternative to the traditional ideas of what constitute the nuclear American family. Meet Erik and Sandro, a gay couple with two daughters birthed by their friend Rachel with donor eggs. In her 40s, Rachel is married to Tony and they have three biological children of their own.
The film spans over three years in the life of this extended family and explores complicated questions of identity: What are the factors that influence who we become? How does becoming a parent challenge how we see ourselves? Can we control what we pass onto our children? Told with candor and humor, THE GUYS NEXT DOOR, brings to light the humanity that connects us all.
