Breeders: A Subclass of Women
June 18
New York, New York

Breeders, a film by the Center for Ethics and Culture, investigates the growing practice of surrogacy: “Surrogacy is fast becoming one of the major issues of the 21st century—celebrities and everyday people are increasingly using surrogates to build their families. But the practice is fraught with complex implications for women, children, and families. What is the impact on the women who serve as surrogates and on the children who are born from surrogacy?” See this flyer for more information.
