I think is safe to say that most of us have all had that awkward moment when we wake up after a night of partying with alcohol and other toxic substances without any recollection of the last 8-10 hours or even how we got to wherever place we woke up, but very few of us end up with long-term consequences or a 9-months-installments contract. In this film that is doing its runs in Fantasia Film Fest called » Antibirth » we meet Lou, a girl that really likes to party hard, never met a drug she didn’t like, and sees her life change dramatically overnight when she discovers that she might be carrying an unexpected passenger in her womb.
Before you get scared and decide to skip this movie just because you believe it will be a (more) bizarre version of “Juno” or that the film will be pushing a “Pro Choice VS Pro Life” message, I will point out that “Antibirth” is way more than that (Actually, is none of that… but I think you know what I mean). The film is actually a weird ass trippy suspense flick, where Lou (portrayed by Natasha Lyonne, of “American Pie” and TV’s “Night Visions” fame ) will not be debating about who the father of the child might be (We will leave that for some Bridget Jones lady), but instead will be wondering how in the hell she got pregnant when she had not done the horizontal mambo in months… .
Todos tenemos en la vida ese momento incomodo cuando despertamos después una noche llena de alcohol y otras sustancias toxicas sin memoria ni de como llegamos adonde nos amanecimos, pero pocos salimos pagando consecuencias de largo plazo y con cláusula de 9 meses. En este filme que esta haciendo sus corridas en Fantasia Film Fest llamado “Antibirth” conocemos a Lou, una chava que deveras le entra con todo a las fiestas, y de un día para otro, ve su vida cambiar radicalmente cuando descubre que podría estar cargando un pasajero intruso en su vientre.
