Documentary Film & Post-Panel Discussion
Mom and Dad, I Have Something to Tell You
Tuesday, May 28, 7-9 p.m.
"Mom and Dad, I have something to tell you" is a documentary film about the journey parents are forced to take once their children tell them they are gay or lesbian. Until now all documentaries about the subject of coming out of the closet have been from the point of view of the person taking that step, and for the first time we try to understand what happens to those parents after their child tells them he is gay, or their daughter confesses she is a lesbian. Co-sponsored by the JCC of Greater Washington, Keshet, & Rockville Open House.
