Description
THE PERFECT MATCH
Directed by Sandro Silva | 2026 | 67 min | Canada
Following his toddler son's lengthy battle with a rare cancer a Ghanaian father living in Edmonton turns to advocacy for stem cell donation. With just a cheek swab, he goes from event to event, actively trying to get young Black Canadians to sign up for the stem cell database in hopes of saving more lives. His efforts are met with resistance due to the deep mistrust in the medical system by Black communities.
Join the filmmakers and other guests for this very special premiere screening of THE PERFECT MATCH and an evening that promises to be highly emotional and utterly unforgettable.
