Window Water Baby
Moving (1959)
Directed by Stan
Brakhage this film stars it's director and his wife. We see the home
birth of a couple's first child in full detail.
Not for the squeamish
this is essentially the first home video of child birth. I have to be
honest watching other peoples birth videos is not something that
appeals to me, sure it captures the magic of human biology, but
unless it's your own kid there isn't a huge connection to it. No
doubt this film was ground breaking at the time but it's very common
now.
3/5
