In May, Netflix created the documentary film « Our father or “Our Father”, which tells the story of Dr. Donald Cline, a gynecologist who inseminated dozens of women, who visited the fertility clinic that the specialist created, with his own sperm, without the consent of his patients. From this practice, the American doctor became the biological father of more than 90 girls and boys from Indianapolis, USA. In 2014, with the progress of DNA testsCline's secret was revealed, Jacoba Ballard, one of her daughters, was the one who uncovered the mystery.
It is the actor Keith Boyle who will play Dr Cline, a doctor by profession since 1979. Only seven years later, he begins to practice the artificial insemination in which he was actively involved. From all the interventions, the gynecologist became the father of more than 94 people, 80 of them grew up in the same neighborhood, in a suburb of 40 kilometers, so, probably, many and many of them know. without knowing that they are united by anything other than the sharing of neighborhood.
“Most of us have blond hair and blue eyes. Almost like a perfect Aryan clan,” said one, who declined to reveal his identity.

The documentary, released on May 11, directed by Lucie Jourdan, was ready after four years of research and production work. According to "Our Father", when Cline opened the clinic in the 70s, medical services for assisted reproduction were scarce and there were no sperm banks, so Dr. Cline chose to masturbate to inseminate with his fresh sperm, because the specialist assured that it generated a more effective result than frozen sperm, to women who wanted to get pregnant.
Cline inseminated about five women a day. Thus, 28 years passed and five years after his retirement, until Jacoba Ballard, knowing that his procreation was the product of insemination, investigated the origin of his "donor". In this search, Indiana coincided with one of her half-sisters with physical characteristics very similar to hers. Both spent part of their time consulting Internet pages such as MyHeritage or Ancestry, which suggested their origins.

When Dr Cline was charged, he accepted the charges without saying a word, pleading guilty in 2017, although of course he assured that he hadn't done so as often as might have been feared, he was also interested in knowing his descendants, questioning them about their ways of life. He also assured that none of his children suffer from a vulnerable health situation, although diagnoses show that many of them tend to suffer from blood clotting and autoimmune diseases. The gynecologist was fined $500, one year probation. The documentary assures that his excessively merciful sentence was due to the fact that the judge who handled his case was one of his great friends.
Another of the most chilling aspects of this Netflix production is one of the data that the filmmaker exposes, since according to “Our Father”, 44 specialist doctors dedicated to cases of infertility carry out methodologies similar to those of Cline.
