We are showing and discussing a one-hour documentary, Anyone and Everyone, which originated as a PBS broadcast in San Diego and has since been broadcast nationally.
Filmmaker Susan Polis Schutz depicts parents from diverse religious and ethnic backgrounds as they share their accounts of how they reacted and responded when their children revealed their sexual orientations. The children are also interviewed, allowing both perspectives to be fairly portrayed.
"Anyone and Everyone is a moving and beautiful portrayal of the love between parents and children, and the work some parents are willing to do for the sake of that love."
--Bent Lens Cinema
"... a moving depiction of American families' most heart-wrenching and heartwarming moments."
--Keith York, KPBS Director of TV Programming
