Director Laura Moss’ birth/rebirth isn’t for the faint of heart.

’s story of two unlikely kindred spirits finding one another in the midst of tragedy is both disturbing and moving as it reworks pieces of Mary Shelley’sBetween its unflinching focus on the dangers of pregnancy and its depiction of the violence hidden throughout the US healthcare system,might leave you feeling deeply unsettled.

Many of the doctors at the hospital where Celie works as a maternity nurse are quick to dismiss the concerns of the expectant mothers they treat because’s set in a world where far more value is placed on the lives of fetuses and babies compared to those of the people who bear them. As a mother herself, Celie understands the importance of hearing people out and letting them be active participants in their healthcare. That’s part of why she’s such a favorite with patients.

In sharp contrast to Celie and all her warmth, antisocial pathologist Rose spends most of her days holed up in the hospital’s lower levels, where she gleans information from people’s corpses while diligently filing reports about what specifically killed them. Because the hospital’s so big and they work in such different departments, Celie and Rose don’t have much of a reason to know one another asopens.

Though it’s very much a story about people trying to conquer death with science, the unexpected genius oflies in the way it frames Celie and Rose not just as mad scientists but also as people whose personal experiences with grief become the core of a connection they both desperately need.
