OPENING NIGHT SCREENING
THE BABY FORMULA
Friday, June 26
9:00pm
Come to our first-ever LADIES NIGHT Screening!
Alison Reid’s feature debut The Baby Formula is a real charmer with a humorous take on what happens when two young lesbians decide to start a family.
Married Canadian lesbians Athena and Lilith take the concept of creating family to a whole new level when they decide to try an experimental scientific process to produce sperm from their own stem cells, and both wind up preggers. An innocent documentarian intent on getting the whole story gets more than she bargained for when Athena and Lilith’s extended family enter the picture with enough dirt on the girls to fill the Grand Canyon, including a brother-in-law who claims he is in fact the biological father.
This mockumentary plays against Bush Era stem cell policy and traditional notions of family with a great sense of friskiness and capitalizes on the real-life pregnancies of her the lead actresses Angela Vint and Megan Fahlenbock, The supporting performances are strong and offer many of the situational big laughs in the film. Seeking comic relief from the real world legal battles facing the community? The Baby Formula will renew your spirits.
Directed by Alison Reid / Canada / 2009 / 90 minutes
