    The film-makers try too hard to turn this into a Tinder Swindler-style tale of women exacting revenge, and there is a late twist. But even without that it’s a decent tale that prompts bigger questions about the donor industry. Meijer declined to be interviewed, so we can only guess at his motivations.

    Another week, another entrant in Netflix’s unofficially but accurately titled (by me) category of shows “Why Don’t We Just Raze Human Civilisation to the Ground and Start Again, or Hand It Over to the Monkeys and See If They Can Manage Any Better?” .... There is no hope that Netflix or any other streamer will ever run out of content.

    This is a gripping, disturbing documentary.
