2010· 45 min·

"Mom and Dad, I have something to tell you" is a documentary film about the journey parents whose children tell them they are gay are forced to take. Through the film different stories of different families and their different reactions are shown with great honesty. Some of them are optimistic, some heartbreaking, but all reveal a much bigger fact of life: that the love of parents to their children is stronger than any other thing. The movie, which is emotional and sensitive, is lead by Assi Azar, one of the rising TV stars in Israel, a screen writer and the host of the Israeli version of "Big Brother". His personal story is unfolded, including a heart to heart conversation between Assi and his parents, for the first time since he came out when he was 24.
