The Rebirth (2025) Tribeca 2025


Set in a future where abortion is illegal, this is the story of a woman who is unable to to take a day off from work and decides to take a black market abortion bill jut before her shift as a waitress. The pill unfortunately has unexpected side effects.

The basic story is based on an actual story. The denouncement is not and it seems to infer a larger story waiting to be told.

This is a neat little film. For most of it's running time it's an uncomfortable thriller about a working woman having to deal with evil bosses and shitty customers while being sick. Its a film that hit. s the memories of anyone who has ever worked in a crappy job. The urgency about abortion and a woman's right to make her own descisions about her body add additional levels of tension and emotion.

I really liked this film, though I'm not certain about the denouncement. As I said above the film the film infers that this story is going to be expanded because it brings up a ton of questions in the final moments.

Questions or no, this is a solid little film and one you need to see.
