The Embryo Who Came In From The Cold

They sing! They dance! They're embryos without a home! And one of them is ripped!


Logline
Five super embryos escape fertility lab in search for their mother. They don't know she already has a child and they can't stay outside a human body for more than eight hours.

Brief Synopsis
An animated dramedy based on reality and fantasy, accompanied by dreams, songs and dances that follows five frozen embryos in a fertility laboratory that have suddenly found themselves thawing due to technical difficulties. They decide to find their mutual biological mother and discover the reason they never reentered her womb. The story is told both from the embryos and their mother point of view.
Although the embryos are siblings from the same mother, they each have a different sperm donor father and therefore each of the embryos is endowed with super-powers in different areas due to paternal genetic make-up. They aspire to be born and so devise a plan to find their mother in spite of their minute size and the fact that they won't be able to survive for very long outside of a human body. On the way, they have many adventures including meeting with other embryos and all sorts of dangerous situations, both inside and outside of human bodies.
They learn about themselves and each other and learn to love and respect each other, in spite of the knowledge they acquire that there isn’t enough room for them all in their mother's womb. When they do find their mother, they are very surprised to learn that she has a child. Each of the embryos reacts in a different fashion; some are unwilling to abandon their biological mother, while others favor finding a different mother altogether.
