A few weeks ago I screened A Mouthful Of Air. I also had the pleasure of interviewing Amanda Seyfried and Finn Wittrock who star in the movie. The film is about a bestselling children's author who writes about unlocking childhood fears, but has yet to unlock her own. After the birth of her second child, things get dark for her as a secret from her past comes rushing forward. This movie deals with personal demons and post partum depression.
Here is my interview with Amanda and Finn
At moments this movie was hard to watch, but I am so happy it was made. Women all over the world are dealing with real life problems, including post partum depression. This movie deepened my capacity to comprehend suffering that I have not personally experienced. Movies open a window from one life into another and I am so happy A Mouthful Of Air was created in order to help others better understand and empathize with those who are struggling with depression. The movie is rated R and you can see it in theaters now.
