Tick Tock Lullaby

Butch-y artist Sasha and her attorney girlfriend Maya's heterosexual procreation envy are contrasted with a pair of other baby-making stories: A single female photographer who wants a child (but not a relationship) sleeps around with a series of young clueless guys while her coupled sister and her boyfriend entertain doubts (and sex and intimacy issues) as they try to make a baby the old-fashioned way. Sasha's intimate confessions and endearing neuroses touch a lovely, vulnerable nerve as do her tremendously thoughtful reflections on love, sex and intimacy in this bracingly honest British feature from the director of sexy rom-com Do I Love You?, with which Lisa Gornick won Mezipatra 2005.
