Parents with Limits

A young Hungarian couple are expecting their first child, but after the first examination on screen, the doctors make reference to “undervalued contraception”. They are concerned that the parents will be unable to raise the child by themselves – they both have learning disabilities and, in addition, the future father is deaf. The director of this documentary full of unsettling questions follows this family, into which two children are born, for eight years. The first of them, Laci, intrigued her more: he is a very perceptive boy whose scholastic performance seems to be hampered more than anything else by his uninspiring family environment. And for the director it is increasingly difficult to maintain her professional distance.
Guests: Eszter Nordin, the director of Parents with Limits; Iva Strnadová and Monika Mužáková from the Faculty of Education at Charles University.
