VEGAS BABY
From Academy Award® Nominated Director Amanda Micheli
and Executive Produced by Morgan Spurlock Examines the Emotional and Financial Gamble of Infertility
NETFLIX PREMIERE
JULY 4
While exposing private pain online to win a contest is a brutal proposition, IVF is rarely covered by insurance, so many infertile couples consider this a gamble worth taking.
Within the exploding world of reproductive medicine, the US is the most expensive and least regulated country in the world.
"VEGAS BABY" navigates the complexities of America's burgeoning fertility industry and paints an intimate portrait of the diverse individuals – from a devoutly Catholic Latino couple in Texas to a lesbian Lady Gaga Impersonator in New York – determined to have a baby against all odds.
Despite the fact that 1 in 6 couples worldwide struggle with infertility, for fear of judgment or heartache or both, would-be parents tend to keep their infertility stories secret.
"VEGAS BABY" breaks the silence around this often misunderstood medical and social issue, and through her intimate lens, Micheli explores universal themes of desire and loss.
