Six years after her bottom surgery, Manon Praline shares a moving testimony of the challenges and joys she encountered on that journey. Her story is complemented with beautiful imagery shot by artist Eva Wu in the dramatic landscape of the North American Southwest, and scored by Pride Month Barbie’s musical sensation Josephine Shetty. This experimental documentary short is a sequel to the trio’s debut film Baby (2018) which has been shown at almost 40 film festivals throughout Europe and North America and received many praises. Like honey on the tongue of a sweet tooth, Mommy pours pure honesty and vulnerability into the viewer’s eyes, ears, and hearts.
