Hey all, just a quick rec for a film I think several of you might enjoy: Tru Loved, a teen comedy-drama about a straight girl with gay parents dealing with a new school in the suburbs after moving out of San Francisco. It has a few slightly heavy-handed moments, but on the whole it's funny and real and gets a whole lot of points from me for featuring a happy gay couple, a happy (and mixed race!) lesbian couple, generally happy & well-adjusted kids with non-traditional family arrangements, and for addressing a variety of stereotypes and managing to get its message across while also telling an entertaining story.

Recommended for anyone, really, but especially if you're a fan of happy queer-themed stories.

Also, Uhura from old school Star Trek plays a secondary character, and Sue Sylvester from Glee has a small part.
