Where do I come from? For some, the question has a simple answer -- for others, the truth can be much more complicated. With the rise in popularity of at-home DNA tests, it's now easier than ever for people to uncover their family history and, sometimes, things their parents wish would stay buried. Interested in learning more about his family heritage, director Jon Baime took an at-home DNA test and uncovered a family secret that has been hidden for half a century. Featuring in-depth interviews with Jon's siblings as well as a treasure trove of family photos and films spanning 70 years, FILLING IN THE BLANKS takes audiences on a journey as Jon explores the meaning behind his discovery and expands on what it means to be family.

Filling in the Blanks is a hugely personal and affecting documentary about the nature of family. Go to Full Review Pat Mullen POV Magazine 08/14/2023
The revelations of this tale are obviously life-altering for Baime, and rightly so, but the idiosyncrasies of a family tree don’t have the same bombshell effect for a viewer at home. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Jon F @RT96631828 03/11/2024 How many siblings do you have? After this you may rethink your answer. See more Sal D @JustTheLaw 12/30/2023 Well produced film on the after affects of a family artificial insemination secret. I feel like I've seen this before at least once but individuals on camera and the direction/editing keep the audience engaged. See more Read all reviews
