PROGRAMMERS NOTES
Love, envy, sense of possession, and man-made moral contracts go hand in hand in Emily Gan and Daniel Schachter's fiction feature debut.
Heartbroken Nadia (Marie-Marguerite Sabongui) unintentionally disrupts the peaceful relationship of a couple when she unexpectedly asks Sam (Charles Brooks), her dearest friend, to be her sperm donor. Cora (Alysa Touati), still grieving for her mom's death, sees Nadia as both an opportunity and threat; given a chance to Sam experiencing fathership can fill the void of Cora's reluctance for motherhood, albeit the consequences of her choice might put their partnership in jeopardy.
Pink Lake scrutinizes an ongoing, bittersweet conversation among couples concerning having vs. not having children, and Emily and Daniel pour their real-life experience into it.
