We are beyond excited to announce that Johanna Moder’s new film, the psychological thriller, MOTHER’S BABY, will have its world premiere at this year’s Berlinale Competition! 🎥✨

Starring the incredible Marie Leuenberger, Hans Löw, Claes Bang and Julia Franz Richter the film follows the emotional journey of 40-year-old Julia, a successful conductor, and her partner Georg as they are longing for a child when Dr. Vilfort offers them hope. Julia becomes pregnant after successful treatment at the fertility doctor’s clinic. The birth does not go as planned and the baby is immediately taken away, leaving Julia in the dark about what has happened. When finally reunited with the child, Julia feels strangely distant. She begins to doubt whether it is really her child.

A huge thank you to the wonderful cast and the incredible crew who brought this deeply moving story to life. 💖 Your passion and dedication shine through every frame.
