EGG

About This Movie

Egg (2019) is a quirky blend of comedy and drama that dives into the complexities of motherhood through the lens of two couples and their surrogate. Marianna Palka's direction has this laid-back yet poignant atmosphere, where the awkward conversations and unexpected moments feel refreshingly real. The pacing is a bit unconventional—some may find it meandering, but that’s part of its charm. The performances, especially from the lead actors, are raw and resonate with genuine emotion, making the absurdities of their situations even more striking. It’s interesting how the film doesn’t shy away from the messiness of relationships and parenting, all wrapped in a uniquely offbeat package that stands apart from typical narratives on the subject.
