A bird under my heart

Elisabeth Rygård, Denmark, 1981

32 min.DK/Documentary

The film forms a contrast to the number of canting pictures or the silence existing round the period of the first six months after a child has been born. It takes up some of the problems that three different women encounter during this period. The film offers no solutions, but asks some questions. How is it possible to think that this is only a private problem?
