02/15/2021 This movie feels like a burden in itself. Claire's character, even if it portrays a successful career woman, seems to be unable to take care of herself and make independent decisions. That's just something I did not get. Her husband is like a bad guy from cartoons, and everything put together is not even funny. See more 02/11/2021 An odd and unexpected look at the set of themes related to childbirth, modern couple relationship, love and woman role in relationship. The film has its grotesque parts, nods to comedy but overall stays a nice drama with unexpected twists. The lead male role is a discovery. See more Read all reviews
