The Perfect Donor

Synopsis

The Perfect Donor is a fair and balanced exploration into the world of commercial egg donation. Through the personal stories of young women who sell their eggs, so that others can create the families of their dreams, The Perfect Donor reveals why women decide to become egg donors, how they feel about the process, and how they think about the children born from their eggs.  This film weaves together the tangled intersections of money and altruism, family and women's health, joy and heartbreak, and the business of making babies. While some donors are overjoyed at their role in helping others complete their families and donate again, others discover that the thousands of dollars they receive for their eggs comes at a greater cost.
