Project Detail

Sparky

Synopsis

A story of pregnancy told through the eyes of Gwen, her partner and their chosen donor. Sparky, is the successful result of fertility treatment, forming bonds outside of their sexuality, and creating extended families across the world.

Choice conversations, glimpse anecdotes, and an unobtrusive camera, combine to create an intense reminder of personal modern day achievement.
