Talented documentary filmmaker Luchina Fisher dives into her powerful and emotional short film called "The Dads," which centers around the stories of five fathers who have transgender children. Joining them on a transformative fishing trip is Dennis Shepherd, the father of Matthew Shepherd, a gay man who was tragically murdered twenty-five years ago. This short film, available on Netflix, may only be twelve minutes long, but it leaves a lasting impact. Luchina takes us through the journey of these fathers and the challenges they face, yet despite the struggles, the film carries a message of love and resilience.
