These Are My Hours

Documentary
The prevalent belief in modern society is that women cannot give birth on their own; that they are not mentally, psychologically, or physically strong enough. The time has come to deconstruct this story.
These Are My Hours is a raw display of female intensity. It shows birth as mother-centric and autonomous. Featuring poetic voiceover from the birthing mother and real-time labor sounds, These Are My Hours is film’s first glimpse into the personal narrative of the heroine’s journey to give life.
