Babes (2024)
The Story
Eden and Dawn are livelong besties who must navigate adulthood in New York City — problem is that they’re both at different stages of “adult.” While Dawn is married with a toddler, Eden is single and child-free. I mean, she maybe kinda thinks about being a mom, and she knows she’d be a really cool one. Eden unexpectedly becomes pregnant after a one-night stand, and she turns to Dawn for support. Dawn has enough on her plate and Eden’s needs become less and less of a priority for her. The film explores the complexities of female friendship, the challenges of motherhood, and the unexpected turns life can take, all with a healthy dose of humor and heart.
