107 Mothers

2021 · 90 min

A quietly devastating, intimate immersion into a hidden world, blending observation and story with raw emotional weight.

Overview: Lesya has committed a crime of passion which brings her a seven-year sentence in one of Odesa’s women’s correctional facilities. She has just given birth to her first child, and now she is entering a world populated only by women: inmates, nurses and wardens, women of all ages, wives and widows, daughters, sisters, pregnant women, and women with children too. If not for the color of the uniform, it would sometimes be hard to tell who is who.
How it feels: Bleak, melancholic, tense and warm. Slow-burning and demanding.
About: Isolation, parenthood, guilt, survival
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
