Mothers

Original title: Mütter

Mothers talk about their experiences. What is expected of them, what personal and social challenges do they face? Everything is represented: from nuclear families to single parents, homosexual parent constellations to motherhood through artificial insemination. Layer by layer, outdated and inverted role models and also the break with social norms become visible. Motherhood between backbreaking work and euphoria.
