PEZ CINE - as PROD

Black comedy - Post-Production 2022

A dramatic comedy about desired maternity but also a series that invites you to be in constant contradiction. A personal and genuine testimony about the chiaroscuro and the ambivalences of that job. A miniseries full of humanity that makes room for the possibility of making mistakes.

    • Synopsis
    • After many attempts, Luciana conceives Olivia. That's not the end of the road but the start of a new one, in which she'll have to fight against the social mandates in order to find her own way of mothering. Since the desire of becoming a mother appears in her life, Luciana starts writing a personal journal, and every episode is an attempt to inhabit gestation, maternity, and parenting according to parameters that she imposes to herself in the first place, but which she'll start to disassemble soon: a pregnancy that takes time to arrive, invasive treatments, unempathetic doctors, visits to a progressive parenting spaces in failed attempts to form a community, and also an unexpecting romance with a woman, her obstetrician. The series ends with childbirth, a long and hard experience. The arrival of Olvia to her parent´s world becomes a traumatic, raw but, no question, happy moment.
