Born For You tells the beautiful and touching true story of Luca a gay, single, Catholic man, who in 2017 adopted Alba, a Down's syndrome child left in hospital shortly after being born. Thirty heterosexual families rejected her before the court decided to entrust her to him: with him, the legal foster care register for singles was inaugurated in Italy. Luca was in fact the first case in Italy of a single, gay person succeeding in adopting a daughter. But his was not a charitable gesture, or to fight a system set against him and others like him: he simply wanted a family.
