What does a single, working woman have to go through to have a child of her own, without a husband, boyfriend or lover? Following a group of eight New York City women for over two years, And Baby Makes Two tells their provocative and emotionally loaded story; a story of women who, earlier in life, had taken every precaution to prevent pregnancy, and who now actively pursue it - without the help of a partner. What emerges is a complex, emotional and courageous portrait of women determined to become mothers.
A film by Judy Katz & Oren Rudavsky, director of Hiding & Seeking and A Life Apart: Hasidism in America.
