Single-parent, same-sex, blended, common-law, disabled, intercultural, traditional...today's family defies definition. Meet Löic, who has two mothers and no father. Véronique and Marcel have children whose voices they cannot hear. Helen, who lost and subsequently recovered her children, counsels Native families in crisis. Through portraits of seven very different families, this engaging documentary shows that, no matter what form it may take, the family is still the mainstay of the individual.
