About This Movie

Lullaby (2022) brings a raw and intimate look at motherhood, as we follow Amaia navigating her new life. It’s set against the stunning backdrop of the Basque Country, which almost feels like another character in the film. The pacing is measured, allowing the weight of her challenges to settle in. The performances, especially from the lead, capture the struggle and vulnerability of a new mom with a kind of authenticity that's hard to ignore. There’s a tangible sense of isolation when her partner leaves, adding to the emotional stakes. The cinematography beautifully contrasts the serene coastal village with the turmoil of her internal world, making it a distinctive piece that sticks with you long after the credits roll.
