Escape offers an intimate look at an issue that is not often addressed: postpartum depression. With two new mothers in the directing collective, the Filministes Festival felt challenged by the sensitivity of this portrait, which shows the vulnerability that can accompany this role and the need to escape from a sometimes constraining role. Through the depth and intensity of the mother's acting, carried by Noelia Vergini, a journey towards freedom is woven, not without pain and guilt.
