The Child

2026 105 min Latvian

Thirty-seven-year-old Zane and Kaspars seem to have it all – love, careers, a home, and shared hobbies. Still, for a decade, they have been unable to have a child. After trying fertility clinics, diets, churches, and healers, Kaspars is slowly coming to terms with the idea that life can be fulfilling even without children. Meanwhile, Zane cannot accept the thought of not becoming a mother and is ready to go to any lengths to make it happen.
