Women reflect on their first year of motherhood and the many joys and challenges it brings – for parent and baby. A gentle, curious and informative conversational documentary about postpartum life, of sublime analogue beauty. Five women, one life-changing experience: childbirth, followed by the postpartum period. With it come massive bodily changes, and maybe even bigger ones in daily life, ranging from painting or cooking with a baby in one’s arm to new communities one becomes a part of. Individual experiences vary, of course, yet some situations and feelings seem unavoidable.
