Non-parent (2017) 15

Czech Republic | 2017 | 83 min.

How many forms can a modern family have? What kind of family do we want? Do we want one at all? An intimate look into parenting and partnerships today shows six different stories, six views on parenting and six different forms of family. For some it was a choice, some gradually came to it, some had no choice, and for some it didn't work out. Some might've done it differently, some wouldn't, some are happy, and others frustrated. But their stories represent many similar ones and families that are similar to their own.
