Ab Ovo

An unusually plastic animation illustrates the power of fertility lurking in every woman. The film shows the conception of a new being but also the anxiety involved with the transformation of a female body which loses its past shapes and forms up influenced by inner power. The physical feeling of a new human inside oneself becomes increasingly clear, until the very moment it trespasses the border of female body, finally marking up its independence. A film represented by the Krakow Film Foundation.
