Love, Your Birth Mom

Pregnant woman looking in mirror, touching her belly.

World Premiere

In their final months of pregnancy, two mothers face impossible decisions that will reshape their lives and the families connected to them. Through intimate, patient observation, Love, Your Birth Mom enters the fragile space where love, loss, and uncertainty meet, revealing the emotional weight carried by birth mothers: the doubts they navigate, the strength they endure, and the quiet sacrifices that often remain unseen.  

Through their stories, the film carries a rare lens into adoption from the perspective of the women at its center, inviting audiences to sit with moral complexity and to consider what care, belonging, and responsibility truly mean. It is a love letter to all children from the women who carried them.
