Synopsis

THE STORY: It’s a fall night in New York City, and two couples who recently met at a parents group are out to dinner at the hot new restaurant.

The foursome share photos of their kids, trade war stories from preschool applications, and discuss their work.

Alan and Rob & Scott and Jason find plenty of common ground as gay couples raising kids in the city, and a play-date with their children is set.

As we follow these couples through their developing friendship, the conversation deepens from after-school pick up to the cracks in their marriages.

DADA WOOF PAPA HOT smartly captures the urban parent experience, particularly at this head-spinning cultural moment.

#LoveWins, or so the marriage equality campaign has decreed.

But then what happens?
