Three of Hearts
One woman. Two men. One bed. How does this work?
Three of Hearts: A Postmodern Family is a heartfelt documentary chronicling the long-term "trinogamous" relationship between Sam Cagnina, Steven Margolis and Samantha Singh.
Director Susan Kaplan began filming this stable, loving menage-a-trois after the relationship had already been going on for nine years, just as the three are about to have a baby. Kaplan's film follows this unique union through the stresses of rearing children and establishing a business, painting a compelling portrait of a truly alternative style of living.
Critics have called the film "poignant", "riveting" and "fascinatingly strange". In the midst of media buzz surrounding same-sex unions, constitutional amendments and polygamous TV shows, it's enlightening to watch this story of real people grappling with real issues as they pursue very everyday goals — love and happiness — within a framework that is anything but everyday.
