Short
On her way to her father’s funeral, Simone misses her connecting flight and is stuck in a small Switzerland airport. Then, she meets Natalie.
Feature
Athena and Lilith want to have a baby, and they want to do it without a man. Traditional methods of lesbian pregnancy are unacceptable to Athena and Lilith as they willingly participate in an experimental process in which sperm is created of women’s stem cells. To add to the drama, the couple has agreed to be filmed by a documentary crew that becomes increasingly obtrusive to the point that it uncovers hidden family secrets, among them that Lilith is also pregnant! During the height of their 9-month journey to motherhood, a family get-together filled with conservative Canadian-Irish Catholics, alcoholic gay dads, and a closeted brother brings all the chaos to a hilarious yet tender head. Underneath this brilliant dead-pan mockumentary is a poignant look at the separation of church and state and the stem cell debate. Pregnant with humor and warmth, THE BABY FORMULA is a fresh take on what makes a family. – Jason Wilby
