Description

In their mid-30s, Eva (Oona Chaplin) and Kat (Natalia Tena) have a fun and carefree simple life in their London canal boat until Eva, inspired by her exceptional mother Germaine (played by her real mother Geraldine Chaplin), presents Kat with an ultimatum: she wants a child. Kat resists, knowing that it will end the bohemian lifestyle that she’s always envisioned with Eva. When Kat’s best friend, Roger (David Verdaguer), drops in from Barcelona, the three of them toy around with the idea of creating a baby together. Kat sees no other way out but to say yes. As the three begin to look forward as one family, their differing expectations of intimacy and responsibility put a heavy strain on their relationship and threatens to rip the three apart.

    Excellent casting for this wonderful new film by the previously awarded director Carlos Marques-Marcet (10000km). A lesbian drama-comedy about motherhood that talks about relatable contemporary topics thanks to a fantastic script co-written by Jules Nurrish. You will laugh, you will cry, you might want to get pregnant or you might not. Good stuff, watch it!
  • An instant classic of Queer cinema!

And the challenges that relationships face in this film are totally relatable, whatever gender or sexual orientation you may be—this film is for everyone!
