The series was created by Tom Salama and Daphna Levine and stars Ran Danker as a gay man that adopts a child from Guatemala. The story is loosely based on Salama's own experiences, as he travelled to Central America when he was younger to adopt a child.[1][2]
Tom, a gay man is determined to become a father and achieve his dream of adopting a child. He travels to Guatemala where he adopts a 5-year-old boy, Miguel and returns with the boy to Israel.
