Birth (2021)

I guess you could say that this is a film about my birth My mother told me once that my father became another person the moment I was born I believe her because if I try to remember a time when I might have felt any connection with my father I cant its as if there was never any When I look at my brother playing with his two year old kid I feel that there was never any When I listen to my mother talking about how depressed and isolated she was after my birth I know there was never any Ive heard details about that period before but Ive never had a fullon narration by her to which I could relisten Womens stories always look like nothing like a bunch of crazy fantasies or silly talkbut those fantasies are all threaded with the ideas about womanhood by which mothers live and suffer and into which baby girls are born httpslaughmotelwordpresscom20210805birth
