Careful! Mom's in labour

Alexandre Wajnberg & 52' — 1985

A labour approach just as mothers and fathers have lived through, before and after. The future parents recount their anguishes, their determinations and, decisions to be taken for this major event (however foreseeable). We then meet these same couples, now new parents, a little later after the birth: no more big bellies, but little babies. All narrations put together show us that each of them is being different from what they, the couples, have expected, wished, or feared for. The living experience of these parents is stronger and more important than any of those statistics.
