Newborn

As their child is born as intersex, Maria and Nicholas face a difficult decision. Caught between love, insecurity and societal pressures, one contemplates early surgery, while the other questions the medical guidelines and deeply entrenched notions of gender. The two must make a life-changing choice that challenges their perceptions of family, parenthood and acceptance.
