Cabin Pressure
Heni is a 36-year-old Hungarian woman in Barcelona. She’s always wanted a traditional, big family but, by her mid-thirties, even though she is successful, she is still single and lonely. She decides to have a baby and soon chooses Andrey to be her co-parent - a Russian, gay expat living in the same city. There are many challenges to come but their determination never fades. The film presents an intimate portrait of the new co-parents and their unusual family model.
