Ever since she was small, Aviva has desperately wanted a baby. Now a teenager, with thoughts and feelings her well-meaning parents Joyce (Ellen Barkin, Drop Dead Gorgeous) and Steve (Richard Masur, The Thing) don’t quite know how to handle, she’ll stop at nothing to make that dream a reality. Played by a cast of rotating actors, including Jennifer Jason Leigh (The Hateful Eight) and Sharon Wilkins, Aviva’s journey towards motherhood never ran smooth. Bringing his trademark dry wit to another series of taboos, Todd Solondz’s portrait of middle-American girlhood interrogates the naivety and hypocrisy of the post-9/11 psyche that continues to shape US public life and policy. Solondz himself approved this 4K restoration by the Museum of Modern Art, and this limited edition release features an exclusive interview between Solondz and critic Hannah Strong, a new video essay by Lillian Crawford, and a booklet with new writing by Bence Bardos.
