Did you ever see those videos of women giving birth in high school anatomy class? It’s like watching a David Cronenberg film because childbirth is body horror.

The impending task of motherhood is draining, and for some, Postpartum depression is a large part of the horrifying ordeal of being a mom.

This is what director/writer Bess Wohl aims to portray in her new feature film Baby Ruby which stars Noemie Merlant and Kit Harrington.Jo (Merlant) is juggling a lot right now.

She’s balancing life as a vlogger and influencer with her first child. Her husband Spencer (Harrington) isn’t into any of that and works as a butcher.
