With her own wedding just around the corner, filmmaker Sharon Shattuck began to examine her parents' unique relationship in the new documentary film, "From This Day Forward."

The film, which beings a weeklong engagement at New York's IFC Center on June 24, reveals how Shattuck's father, Trisha, learned to cope after coming out as transgender. Her mother, Marcia, identifies as straight, but opted to stay committed to Trisha throughout her transition and beyond.

Not a lot of story behind the film but there is a sneak preview of the documentary and I just can't wait to see this come out on POV in October.
