Fatherhood (Tres papás)

Three men wait for the gynecologist, nervous but excited. Months of planning have led to this moment—at last, a tiny heart beats inside Kristopher. Kristopher, David and Sindre, all in their 30’s, live in a multi-partner relationship and are expecting their first child. Kristopher is the birth father and one of Norway’s trans pioneers. His pregnancy is a result of a remarkable coincidence: despite undergoing a mandatory sterilization as part of his transition, his uterus was left healthy and functional.

Fatherhood follows their journey from early pregnancy through the anticipation of childbirth and becoming new parents. Set against a backdrop of shifting opinions and mounting pressure on the queer community, it tells a universal story of becoming parents for the first time. Are they ready for what awaits them? And is society ready to accept them and their child?
