FROZEN ANGELS, by Eric Black and
Frauke Sandig, follows a
cast of characters through
the wonder-world of assisted human reproduction while, at the same
time, portraying Los Angeles, a city better known for elevating the
superficial into an art, for Hollywood, Disneyland, freeways,
silicone-implants, film sets of epic proportions, and perfect bodies at
Muscle Beach. But in the Mecca of the Body Perfect, one in six couples
is now infertile and Angelinos lead the world in number of fertility
clinics per capita. All of their customers are wealthy, 99% are white.

publishers and journalists across fifteen countries or is she a truly
radical artist? Somewhere within this brilliantly crafted film lies the
truth.
