“My First Time” is a film about pregnancy. It’s about how a woman feels when she enters into that particular period in her life when adversities, emotion and new experiences overwhelm her. It’s about all the things for which you cannot find the answers in books but that pregnant women share with each other.

The film’s backbone is the personal diary of the director and her “first time” experience with child bearing. Agony, instinct, logic and the subconscious are the ingredients of an explosive cocktail in a body that is constantly changing. The director videotapes herself and at the same time another four women looking for answers to her queries. Iro, Angeliki, Joyce and Anna constitute different aspects of a modern woman.

A personal film about those nine months viewed with a lot of realism but also a great deal of humor.
