About Donor Unknown

"Nothing in the Hollywood imagination can compete with the plot of Donor Unknown."
The Sunday Times
"Sweet-natured and affecting... a triumph." The Independent
"Compelling." Variety "Poignant." New York Daily "Stupendous." Filmmaker Magazine

JoEllen Marsh, now 20, has always known her family "wasn't like other families". She grew up in Pennsylvania with two mothers, and a burning curiosity to know more about her anonymous donor father.  When she discovers an online registry which connects donor-conceived children, JoEllen manages to track down half siblings from the same donor, across the US. Then she hears from Jeffrey Harrison, living in a broken-down RV with four dogs and a pigeon in a Venice Beach car park. In the 1980s, Jeffrey supplemented his meagre income by becoming a sperm donor at California Cryobank - his number was Donor 150.

Funny, moving and surprising, Donor Unknown is a uniquely 21st century story which raises intriguing questions about identity, family, parenthood - and the strange power of genetic connections. Fresh from winning the Best Feature at The Tribeca (Online) Film Festival award, Donor Unknown is coming to a cinema near you.
