    • Is motherhood instinctive or constructed? How can a period so surrounded by the expectation of happiness and fulfillment be, at the same time, so disappointing, exhausting, lonely and melancholic? Why is it so little talked about? In Troubles in Paradise - The Myth of Motherhood, a mother director seeks out other mothers to talk about the maternal instinct and together they explain the complexities and richness of motherhood.
