A Gravidez é Nossa/Pregnancy is Ours/2019/David Aguacheiro & Tina Krüger/30 min
Follows a group of men in a rural Mozambican community living very different stages of life, from being with their first girlfriend, just having had their first child, to having been married for many years. However, they all have one thing in common: they want to change the traditional way contraception, pregnancy, childcare, and house chores are viewed by fellow men in their community.
