This is the story of the dad who gave birth. Freddy is 30 and yearns to start a family, but this comes with unique challenges. He is a gay transgender man. Deciding to carry his own baby took years of soul searching, but nothing could prepare him for the reality of pregnancy.

Named after the phenomenon of male seahorses who carry and give birth to their young, this intimate documentary tells the moving story of a trans man’s path to parenthood. Master documentarian Jeanie Finlay captures the arduous and ultimately courageous journey with a singular sense of compassion.
