CGiii Comment

Want to see how fu**ked up the world actually is?

Buying babies...the arguments, for and against, are deep and complex...throw poverty and culture into the equation with the added bonus of a homosexual purchaser...and the complexity multiplies instantly and exponentially...

Manipulation, desperation and the corrosive effects of money...this film shows it all.

Powerful, sobering...and, humbling.

The(ir) Blurb...

Thomas, a Danish gay man, is unable to adopt in his home country. He visits a friend in Brazil to explore the possibility of bringing home a child. Eventually he meets Maria, a poor woman who is willing to give away the child she is carrying in exchange for money. As he waits for the child, Thomas takes care of Maria, and their relationship develops in a way he did not expect.
