What My Child Is About

The documentary focuses on seven parents. All of them have children who are LGBT. Those speaking tell their own experiences. The moment their child came out is the first subject. One by one they say what they felt at that moment. For some of them acceptance took a long time. Some came up against the people around them. In Turkey it is easy to be left alone with this. In time the parents come together. They form a group among themselves. Then they carry it outside. They take part in marches and they speak. Being a parent and being an activist meet here. Can Candan directed the eighty three minute documentary. The Turkish production was finished in 2013.
