Hello,
The Birth Rites Collection would like to invite you to an in-person film premiere at King's College, London on Monday, 8th November at 7pm.
'Come Home' is the story of Victoria - a 16 year old mother whose infant son is removed from her care, against her will. The film closely follows Victoria's experiences as she tries to come to terms with her fractured motherhood and her troubled relationship with her own mother.
It is a very moving story of a mother, daughter and child that engages with urgent contemporary discussions about maternal mental health, universal access to childcare and social support, adoption practice, birth control and what more might be done to support young mothers.
'Come Home' has been developed in collaboration with the Birth Rites Collection and the midwifery department at King's College, London. Filmmaker Marta Stysiak spent time in-situ with the midwifery department at KCL online, attending relevant classes, holding workshops with students and interviewing and filming members of staff and students around the subjects of young mothers, mental health and incarceration.
The premiere will take place in the Harris Lecture Theatre, Guy's Campus, King's College, London on Monday 8th November at 7pm.
We would love you to join us at the screening, which will be followed by a question and answer session with filmmaker Marta Stysiak, Dr Elsa Montgomery from King's College, London.
A film flyer is attached for some more information.
