Awakening - LGBT Rights in Poland

Logline
Adam and Paweł relationship is dramatically changing, which is causing
questions about rights for custody on kids for LGBT people in Poland.

Rules for LGBT+ Poles in this Catholic country are tightening further. They are already barred from adopting children as couples, but some local authorities look favourably on applicants adopting as single parents. Poland's justice ministry has proposed that a legal loophole should be closed to prevent LGBT+ people from adopting children completely.
