The Prince's Sword is a contemporary domestic drama based on the true story of the conflict that arose in the director's pacifist home when her five year old son fixated on wanting a toy sword. Reflecting the changing face of family, this film explores how two mothers struggle to guide their son's masculinity in a peaceful, feminist fashion, while still honoring his experiences as a boy. The film puts a contemporary twist on the universal challenge of parenting as a complex process of letting go of what we love the most. When our children challenge our values, when is it right to hold on and when is it right to reconsider? - IMDb
