We are thrilled to account that WG Film’s new film For Somebody Else from rising talent, Swedish filmmaker Sven Blume will have its World Premiere at Göteborg Film Festival! The film competes in the Best Nordic Documentary strand at the festival. We are also excited to announce that the film will be distributed by Swedish distributor and Nordic event cinema and outreach house Doc Lounge.

Surrogacy is prohibited in Sweden and many other countries, but in California the phenomenon is a growing industry. In For Somebody Else, we meet three women who for varying reasons have chosen to carry and give birth to the other people’s children. Director Sven Blume follows the everyday chaos and emotional turmoil they go through – before, during and after pregnancy – and allows them to formulate and reflect over their choices. The result is a thought-provoking, nuanced and intimate documentary.
