| Abstract: | Childless couples make up a lucrative and sometimes illegal market. Surrogacy is banned in most European countries. Even so, a growing number of childless couples cross boarders and pay women from Third World countries to carry and deliver a child. The baby is taken away from the surrogate mother a few hours after being born.This investigative documentary digs into an industry of hope, despair - and cynical middlemen. The search takes us through various countries, ex. Peru, India, England and USA.Winner of: The research award for the most thorough research carried out within the genre of television and film, FUJ (union of investigative journalism), Denmark, 2008. |
