Overview

A pregnancy fever ignites women, whose glorious and bare bellies are seen on the covers of magazines. How do they approach motherhood, breastfeeding, menopause, homoparenting, the place of the father and that of the man, the demand to do without their body to procreate? How will they thwart the traps linked to the empire of the biological? The new data on motherhood debated by doctors, psychoanalysts, writers, filmmakers, lawyers, historians, sociologists.
