Anastasia and her husband Chavdar want to help their daughter Betty, who is struggling after suffering multiple miscarriages. When Chavdar pays for an IVF treatment, 55-year-old Anastasia decides that she will carry the embryo to term herself, unleashing a chaotic clash of family dynamics, ethics, and even the law. Whose child is this, anyway? The latest from Zornitsa Sophia, the talented director of _Mother_ (shown at EUFF 2023), this unique comedy-family drama is based on an “inconceivable” but true story of a Bulgarian family in 2017.
“Sophia again proves [herself] as a daring director … The comedy does not belittle the drama, but makes it more bearable [and] the romance is not sugar-coated, but painfully real.” Tanya Dimova, _KINO Magazine_
