Baby Blues

About This Movie

Baby Blues is a raw glimpse into the chaos of new motherhood. Marte’s first solo walk with her newborn is far from serene; it’s a blend of anxiety and exhaustion that feels almost palpable. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the viewer to sit with her discomfort and occasional moments of fleeting joy. The director, still unknown, captures the atmosphere with intimate close-ups and a muted color palette—very real, very relatable. The performances are honest, especially Marte’s portrayal of a woman on the edge, navigating her new reality with a mix of fragility and resilience. It’s a distinctive take on the challenges of parenting that doesn’t shy away from the darker corners of the experience.
