Private Life (2018)
Honest
This is a pretty honest portrayal of what it can feel like to live this experience. I'm not sure Tamara Jenkins would have been able to get so much right, had she not gone through it herself. A sincere thank you for making it.
Vegas Baby (2016)
Validating
This is a wonderful documentary that shares what it's like to walk through the infertility journey. If you've struggled, or someone you love has, I highly recommend watching this short film.
Unfortunately, there are so many misconceptions about what it takes to reproduce. I didn't realize how many there were, until I unexpectedly found myself facing this challenge. The movie shines a light on some of these.
My favorite "character" was probably Athena's mother. She was a wise & caring lady and without being in amidst the struggle herself, seemed to truly "get it."
There can be numerous ups and downs on this path. Because of this, I thought it was incredibly brave of these men and women to share their struggles so openly in this format. I'm grateful, because it helped me to process my own emotions in different ways.
Kudos to the director & team -
