Our Child

About This Movie

Our Child is a reflective documentary that dives into some heavy themes surrounding parenthood and societal norms. The atmosphere is raw, almost intimate, as it explores whether parenthood is the natural next step in life. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the viewer to sit with the filmmaker’s personal journey, which is based on her daughter’s procreation story. What I found striking is how it questions the traditional family unit, showcasing voices that often go unheard. The filmmaker's approach is honest, revealing the complexities of her thoughts and feelings without wrapping them in a glossy finish. It's this authenticity that makes the film stand out, as it invites the audience to ponder their own beliefs about family.
