Дополнительная информация о мероприятии:
Using interviews, statistics, personal testimonies and scientific studies, confidential off the record and humour prospective parents, a new mother, a midwife, a demographer, a sociologist, a neuroscientist and an anti-birth activist youtuber take a stand on a critical question "why (don't) we have children?"
In Europe in recent decades, fewer and fewer people are having children. Director Dimitris Babilis and four experts on the subject ask themselves: What do the numbers show? Have people stopped having sex? Are more and more people not having offsprings by choice? And if we do have a "population deficit," why are those who opt for a better life being persecuted?
The creative team at APARAMILON explores the concepts and issues of "underpopulation", "overpopulation", motherhood as a conscious personal choice, abortion, prenatal testing, state welfare policies, sperm banks and dating apps.
The title of the performance refers to Ken Loach's film "Ladybird Ladybird" (1994), about a single mother's conflict with social services regarding the care and custody of her children.
