E4 A New Kind of Family with "The Guys Next Door" with Amy Geller and Allie Humenuk

Description

Filmmakers Amy Geller and Allie Humenuk talk about kinship, gender roles, and parenting in their award-winning documentary. "The Guys Next Door" features Erik and Sandro, whose friend Rachel offers to be a surrogate for their two children. I sit down in a coffee shop with Amy and Allie to discuss how their film both represents and impacts nontraditional families, and how family structures may change, but family life is often surprisingly unsurprising.
