Episode Details

My theme is Motherhood in May. Uncovering the horrors of pregnancy. Believe it or not, pregnancy isn’t this miraculous beautiful experience much of the media portrays to be. Pregnancy is a story of body horrors more akin to the Alien franchise chest burster then the fairy tale version we like to tell ourselves.

Today I am talking with director/writer Danny Perez about his film Antibirth.

In a desolate community full of drug-addled Marines and rumors of kidnapping, a wild-eyed stoner named Lou wakes up after a wild night of partying with symptoms of a strange illness and recurring visions as she struggles to get a grip on reality while stories of conspiracy spread.
