The Empty Womb (El vientre vacío)

Maternity: portrait of a generation

Many women nowadays want to have children but their economic situation does not allow them to. Plenty of women between 30 and 50 have seen themselves forced to abandon their dream of being mothers for not being able to afford a child. Many others opted for  alternatives as in vitro fertilization, since they had no economic stability in their most fertile years.

Women with very different lives get together to talk and contrast their experiences and positions towards maternity nowadays. Women of different ages, different social background and different ideologies star in The Empty Womb.
