Stepfathers don’t always have it easy. They are coming into a situation where the children may not accept them with open arms. Budweiser, in a Father’s Day film, is celebrating a few of those stepfathers who not only weathered the storm but became true role models to their stepchildren.

Budweiser looks to shine an unexpected light on fatherhood and toast stepfathers that stepped up. The brand created an emotional short film that documents heartfelt stories of three real families as they surprise their dads by officially removing the “step” from their stepfather titles.

It follows the stories of three sets of stepfathers and stepchildren. At the end of each story, the stepchildren present papers and ask their stepfathers to legally adopt them.
