Solomamma

A journalist pursuing motherhood through sperm donation tracks down her donor under the guise of an interview.

Synopsis

Edith is a curiosity-driven journalist (40) who decides to embark on single motherhood by sperm donor. However, the challenges of solo parenting prove to be more daunting than anticipated, and she fears that she is not enough for her son. When the identity of the donor unexpectedly surfaces, Edith decides to seek him out under the false pretense of doing a feature interview of him and his tech company, thereby shaking up not only her own life and emotions but also those of everyone around her.
