Our take

Keenly attuned to the daily obstacles strung across the rocky path of modern motherhood, Zsófia Szilágyi’s intimate debut is a tightly-woven character study, wrought with questions of authenticity and agency. The naturalistic cinematography belies a tornado of unceasing doubts and uncertainties.
