Join Maine Film Center and Kennebec Valley Community Action Program (KVCAP) for a free screening of No One Told Me, a new documentary by filmmaker Zulilah Merry, alongside a resource panel for prenatal and postpartum supports.

No One Told Me provides a raw and honest look at the postpartum period, a unique time in a woman's life that is rarely captured in documentary film. The purely observational footage of incredibly intimate moments shows the highs and lows encountered by parents Elise and Marc as they adapt to life with a baby. Focusing on the new mother, the film shares the physical, hormonal, and psychological changes she faces during the first 10 weeks of motherhood. It is a story filled with tender, tense, raw, and intimate moments, making one feel as though they are present in the room with the new parents.

Please join us for a Q+A following the screening with Zulilah Merry, the director of No One Told Me. KVCAP and other partners will share resources on prenatal and postpartum supports for families including planning for a baby, breastfeeding support, and connecting with and caring for a new baby and yourself.
