What happens

Breakfast with Scot is a 2007 Canadian comedy film, about a gay couple who unexpectedly become parents for a stereotypically feminine boy, disrupting their semi-closeted lives. It is adapted from the 1999 novel by Tufts University professor Michael Downing. The screenplay was adapted by Sean Reycraft from the novel by Michael Downing, and the film was directed by Laurie Lynd. The film attracted significant press attention in 2006, when the National Hockey League and the Toronto Maple Leafs announced that they had approved the use of the team's logo and uniforms in the film. Breakfast with Scot was the first gay-themed film to receive this type of approval from a professional sports league. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
