Based on a True Story
SECOND NURTURE
18 MONTHS
“18 Months” is a stop-motion short film born out of love.
Created in partnership with Klick Health and Second Nurture, it tells the powerful true story of Pete and Dan — a gay couple who found an abandoned baby in a New York subway and spent the next 18 months fighting to legally adopt him.
Told without stereotypes and with deep emotional nuance, the 6-minute film blends handcrafted puppetry with real-time projection techniques to bring this journey to life. At its heart, “18 Months” is a story about unconditional love — told frame by frame, with care, craft, and purpose.
