GROUP

“A group of people gather weekly to discuss their anxiety around being pregnant as they must mentally come to terms with their evolving change and new lives.”

As they meet the unexpected challenges of their pregnancies, six strangers gain insight into themselves and each other through the conversations of their weekly support group. Across eight months, each expecting parent grapples with a personal journey while also confronting their collective views on class, gender, and family. The group finds strength in this growing community while facing the humour and heartbreak of their shared experience. A single repeated camera set up affords audiences an opportunity to investigate these characters and participate in the narrative as a silent observer.
