Sperm Friends

Ramiro Velasco

Director(s): Ramiro Velasco

SPERM FRIENDS is an argentinian LGBT comedy about friendship, paternity and new family models. It takes place during dinner with friends at Andrea and Carla’s apartment, two girlfriends determined to be mothers. They invite Hernan and Facundo, a friend gay couple, and the girls propose having a baby between the four of them through a fertility treatment. At the beginning the idea seems insane but as the night goes on, and after several wine glasses, the guys accept the proposal and all of them get to the uncomfortable situation of choosing which of the two men will be the sperm donor.
