Masha Mom
Sunday, October 24 at 3:30 pm
Directed by Michal Bukojemski
Poland, Beta SP, 45 minutes
English and Polish w/ English subtitles
Masha, who desperately wants a child, chooses to live in Moscow even with its limitations. Laws are different in Moscow, which provides opportunity to be a lesbian mother.
Masha is determined to reach her aspiration of motherhood whether it means risking the loss of her relationships and finding new ones, or aggressively seeking one sperm donor after another. At one point she even propositions the director of the film to become a donor!
Masha overcomes much heartbreak
and jumps a lot of hurdles before
she makes her dream come true.
This touching documentary follows Masha from her younger years to a more mature
and stable woman. After a long wait and with the help of her brother and friends, Masha finally achieves her life long goal.
