Ten minutes to make you rethink every 'glowing' pregnancy you've ever seen.
Being 9 months pregnant is not a beautiful miracle - at least not to Mags, who’s exactly that. Lonely, she seeks advice from a visitor, but instead is prodded out of self-pity and pushed towards the acceptance of what is about to become her new normal.
Acting
Condron's physical exhaustion is uncomfortably visceral.
Writing
Jo's 'helpfulness' escalates with surgical precision.
Director
Elly Condron
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Condron wrote this while pregnant, shooting at 37 weeks—Jo's invasive 'coaching' mirrors real unsolicited advice she received. The discomfort is autobiographical.
The entire film was shot in a single 6-hour window before hospital induction. Ronney was cast 48 hours prior, never met Condron before the shoot.
