Telling the story of genetic cancer, FamilyG is focused on telling a moving story about the profoundly life changing effects of a little known genetic cancer, known as Lynch Syndrome. Relatively unknown, this genetic cancer began within a single family tree, and unknowingly has affected thousands of families for nearly 7 generations.
FamilyG is presented in 3 parallel webisode series formats:
- fictional comedy/drama that follows a small group of characters as they experience various professional, academic and interpersonal situations; the characters include a genetics researcher, a lab assistant and various family members
- news-like factoid format that will feature a genetics researcher and a gastroentologist offering educational insights into colon cancers, Lynch Syndrome, as well as the geneology research
- biographical documentary that features an individual and family, who are known Lynch Syndrome descendants
