In 2012, White Stork Enterprises insures that baby-hungry couples will bear "perfect" offspring for a mere $100,000. By offering successful embryo fertilization through digital chip technology, "Stork" advertises that they can remove potential disease and negative personality traits from the embryo's genetic code for $5,000 per item. Too good to be true? A con game? Well, a chip-like microfluidic device does exist (develop in Tokyo) that increases the probability of successful in-vitro fertilization from 29% (eggs in a petri dish...) up to 88%. Genetic engineers are close to identifying the codes for various diseases, but after hearing the couples' (and doctor's) real-life stories, it's sad to think that many delightful human peculiarities might disappear, when perfect people walk the earth. Produced as part of Rick Schmidt Workshop.
White Stork is Coming is a 2010 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 17 minutes.
