Nekada smo svi za južno američke zemlje uključujući Meksiko mislili da su tradicionalno katoličke, konzervative i pomalo isključive. Još ako tome dodamo brojne vojne hunte, diktature i velike ekonomske i političke krize koje su bile sinoim za južnoameričke države onda nismo mogli ni sanjati da je u takvim zemljama tolerancija prema gay ljudima na nekom pristojnom nivou.
Tako je možda bilo nekada. A danas? Danas je u većini tih država dozvoljen istospolni brak, države finansiraju projekte koje doprinose toleranciji i upoznavanju stanovništva o pojmovima kao što su seksualna orijentacija i odnos društva prema tome. Većina ljudi u tim zemljama je prihvatila LGBT populaciju kao sastavni dio društva! Televizije, novine i ostali mediji promovišu sve projekte koje su u službi borbe protiv homofobije!
Kao rezultat takvog intezivnog rada prestalo se i razmišljati o nekoj posebnoj LGBT kulturi, već je taj pojam samo dio jedne opšte kulture u državi.
Nastali su mnogi kratki filmovi, propagandne poruke, dugometražni filmovi, edukativne televizijske emisije, izložbe, muzika ...
Danas su te zemlje u potpunosti dio razvijenog svjeta, civilizacijski napredne, a koliko mogu uočiti i ekonomski jake! Posebno tu ubrajam Brazil, Argentinu i Meksiko.
La otra familija je Meksički film koji se bavi temom usvajanja dijece u istospolnim brakovima. Ovo je kod nas još uvjek blasfemična primisao jer se homoseksualci, tj pederi smatraju bolesnicima koji se trpaju u bulju , a neki misle i da je to zarazno, tako da je jedan od glavnih argumenata zašto treba ograničiti prava pedera upravo vaspitanje dijece. Religija tu ima takođe velikog uticaja.
Mnoga dijeca odrastu uz očeve pijanice, nemarne majke, narkomane, uz kriminalne ličnosti ili pak u nekom okruženju koje odlikuje potpuno pomankanje ljubavi, nježnosti i pažnje. Siromaštvo je posebna priča koja može imati i sretan kraj kada je porodica složna i harmonična.
Da li je za takvu dijecu bolje da rastu u nekom sirotištu ili kod gay parova koji su spremni da tom djetetu pruže i ljubav, i podršku u životu!
Ovaj film razbija te dileme. Pun emocija sa lijepom pričom koja nas na momente raznježuje , pa raduje ili rastužuje do plača!
Sa moje strane ima sve preporuke za pogledati!
Prije 5-6 godina bio sam u vezi sa jednim starijim crnogorcem , koji je odrastao u patrijahalnoj porodici. Iskren, pošten čovjek, pun onih vrlina o kojima je pričao Marko Miljanov u svojim pričama o crnogorcima nekad. Kada smo se upoznali bio je već 6 godina u vezi sa jednom ženom koja ga je iskreno voljela i još uvjek ga voli!
Mene je doživljavao kao nekog svog najrođenijeg, i volio me je svim srcem. Upoznao me je sa roditeljima, bratom, sestrom, tom ženom i svima se hvalio da sam mu najbolji prijatelj. Naravno niko nije znao šta smo radili u 4 zida i to u našem slučaju nije bilo ni bitno. Idila je trajala oko 2 godine. Jednom prilikom sam pričao sa njegovom sadašnjom ženom koja mi je rekla: Ne mora on mene nikada oženiti , ali želim da mu podarim radost da ima svoje dijete. Znam da će ga voljeti svim srcem i biti dobar otac.
Nisam to lako podnio ali sam u tom trenutku bio svjestan da moram da se sklonim iz njegovog života po svaku cjenu kako bi mogao da ima ono što mu ja nikada ne mogu dati! Danas ima sina koji mu je sve u životu , sretan je! Ja nisam u kontaktu sa njim!

Jean Paul and Chema are a gay couple that has been together for ten years. One can see their relationship is solid, proved to be real, as they decide to get married. In a macho dominated society the union between two men is a rarity that came to be legal only recently. It is clear these two men are in love and have decided to make a commitment that speaks loudly than words.
When Nina, a drug addict is sent to prison, her young son, Hendrix, is left to fend for himself. A friend, Ivana, a lesbian in a serious relationship with Gloria, decides to bring the boy to her friends Jean Paul and Chema. The men, uneasy at first, take a liking to the little boy whose innocence captures their hearts. After the initial misgivings, the couple end up loving Hendrix. Unfortunately, Nina wants her son back. Because of her connection with unsavory characters, the plight of the boy takes center stage for criminals that want to sell the boy to a wealthy couple. Jean Paul, and especially Chema, will fight to stand by the boy.
Directed by Gustavo Loza with sure hand, this Mexican entry surprises because of the way the subject matter is treated with honesty in dealing with the issue. Mr. Loza, who also wrote the screenplay, presents us with a drama that in other hands might have degenerated into a sensational account of the two gay couples that are being examined. That, and the fate of the boy, with an uncertain future, is examined with a clarity that speaks volumes as to the intentions of the creator of the film.
There are solid appearances by Jorge Salinas and Luis Guzman as Jean Paul and Chema. The actors do a solid job in the way they approached their roles to make them real. Young Bruno Loza, whom one suspects is the son of the director, is perfectly sweet, in a surprising performance. Ana Serradilla, Ana Soler, Nailea Norvind and the great Carmen Salinas contribute to the over all excellence of the film.
