What Motherland Is About
The documentary takes place in one of the busiest maternity hospitals in the world; the hospital is in the Philippines, a country with a large population where poverty is widespread. The camera is in the wards: women sharing the same bed, newborn babies, the information given after birth and conversations about contraception. According to the film the tension between reproductive health policy and conservative religious influence in the country makes poor women pay the heaviest price. The account offers no commentary; it places the camera in the ward, records what it sees and brings the women’s own words forward. Ramona S. Diaz’s ninety four minute documentary was completed in 2017.
