The purpose behind this documentary is to explore the arguments for the human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people through the lens of religious, scientific, cultural, civil and legal paradigms. A spectrum of studies, opinions and interpretations are represented and discussed.
We follow a day in the life of Christians, Rene Sugar and Kelly Smith, and their family and learn how they reconcile and live within a culture that is often prejudiced towards them. We tell fascinating stories from various world and religious mythologies that are, more often than not, inclusive towards LGBT like characters because of the value they offered their respective culture and humanity as a whole. Discover why these people think they are born equal.
This was a very ordinary documentary in my opinion. The only one, and actually very significant difference here was the religious views from a lot of multiple religions and what they have to say. It was interesting to see representations from Jewish, Hindu, Church, Buddhism and there religions giving their perspective on what their understanding is of what their religion says or doesn't say about homosexuality. In regards to sexuality, what does our ancestral religion and world mythology tell us about our past beliefs and the present? Wed not get an answer that's universal but we get different perspectives. Besides this, the banter of the lesbian couple and their kids and everything else is so basic now. I mean, their story is no different from any other same sex couple with kids, so in that sense the documentary has absolutely nothing new to offer. Overall, its a simple ordinary documentary, which doesn't offer much. (2.5/10)
