Jury Award for Best Narrative Feature Film

The dreamy and tranquil Italian scenery belies the turbulence of a gay partnership on the edge of collapse, multiple amusingly vivacious and entangled relationships, and the unexpected addition of children to an already chaotic daily life. Rich characters and subplots develop as we are taken on a surprise adventure to fight for what is right and put the wishes of a childhood friend above all else to form a new and thoroughly modern family. — Jury Statement
