MADE IN INDIA is a feature documentary film that shows the human experiences behind the phenomena of “outsourcing” surrogate mothers to India. The film weaves together the intimate stories of Indian surrogates and infertile Americans. What unfolds is a complicated clash of medical tourism, families in crisis, globalization and personal choice.
