Docuseries (in production) 

The film takes an intimate look at the reproductive journeys of several American women challenged by motherhood and modern medicine in the 21st century. It gives voice to the myriad ways modern women are experiencing motherhood as a technology-mediated decision, a healthcare choice, a social concept and a life-altering event. To be or not to be a mother. Who or what is in control of women’s reproductive health. How outside forces such as coronavirus and advancing technologies influence and intervene in decisions about women’s bodies. Together, these stories weave a tapestry of experiences that define and challenge the meaning of motherhood, while examining the neurology of reproductive consciousness and the future of family.
