And Family Secrets by Jonathan Hutchison, directed by David Malinsky.

Amy's dad (Paul Thomas Ryan /What was Lost) suspects that she's about to announce she's gay and that's ok with this progressive, loving family, but when Amy's (Janel Koloski/Yellow Duck) news isn't quite what they expected they have trouble accepting the truth.
