Run time: 81 min. | Canada

In the beginning... sperm came from men. Two adventurous women in love are desperate to have their own biological child. They take a chance on an experimental scientific process and make sperm from their own stem cells. Pregnant with humour and unexpected twists, their journey tailspins out of control when their families discover there is no father.

"The Baby Formula blurs most of the known cinematic boundaries. It's funny, rueful, absurd, angry, hysterical, deadly serious, and entertaining as hell. Sort of like life." *The Montreal Gazette

"A genuinely laugh-out-loud funny and moving film" *The Hour

Rated 4.0/5 Stars my rating click to rate 1 2 3 4 5 gtraya 9:50 AM		This movie was like a gay RAHCEL GETTING MARRIED. It's concentrated on family and family dynamics, and for most everyone that is such a touchy and tear-jerking subject. The documentary feel to the fictional narrative was a brilliant way to create some dynamic characters.
