Donor Unknown is an award-winning feature documentary, following JoEllen Marsh on the journey to find the sperm donor father she only knows as Donor 150.

When she discovers an online registry which connects donor-conceived children, JoEllen manages to track down half siblings from the same donor, across the US. Then she hears from Jeffrey Harrison, living in a broken-down RV with four dogs and a pigeon in a Venice Beach car park. In the 1980s, Jeffrey supplemented his meagre income by becoming a sperm donor at California Cryobank – his number was Donor 150.

Funny, moving and surprising, Donor Unknown is a uniquely 21st century story which raises intriguing questions about identity, family, parenthood – and the strange power of genetic connections.  Fresh from winning the audience online award at the Tribeca Festival 2011, Donor Unknown is directed by Jerry Rothwell.
