    Tick Tock Lullaby

    Lisa Gornick 2006 UK Fiction color 73min English Beta
    Tick Tock Lullaby is a wry comedy about the decision to have a child or not. The film interweaves cartoonist Sasha's drawings with her real life dilemma of whether to change her life's course and become a mother. The more she thinks about it the harder it is – if only she could procreate lustfully and let chance decide.

    However, since her mate is Maya, she will have to use her mind rather than her body to make her baby. She mourns the fact it cannot be a romantic expression of their love– but must be thought out rationally.

    This film looks at the prevalent pros and cons of whether to become a parent. Told in the first person– it is an intimate philosophical comedy– using humor as well as poignancy to investigate the mother within and the dilemma of how to express it.
