Why watch this film?
Interesting Estonian film that, on the surface, seems just like another drama about parenthood. After all, the plot follows a 30-year-old construction worker who gets urgent news: his ex-girlfriend, whom he hasn't seen in six months, is about to go into labor. However, she isn't ready for motherhood and, if Erik doesn't want the baby either, the little girl will be put up for adoption. From there, he sees the need to better understand how a baby "works," with all its needs -- and, no doubt, many of them showing the lack of parental care in raising it. However, 'Võta või jäta' quickly reveals itself as a drama about loneliness, parenthood, and self-discovery, always with a provocative and bold direction from Liina Trishkina, accurate in her ideas.

Drama
Kidnapped
In Kidnapped (Rapito), Italian filmmaker Marco Bellocchio delves into one of the murkiest and most controversial episodes in the history of the Catholic Church, the "Mortara case". In 1851, when Jewish boy Edgardo Mortara becomes gravely ill, his Catholic nanny decides to baptize him in an emergency. However, papal law dictates that all Catholics must be raised as such, so the cardinal orders the boy to be taken and handed over to the church, against his parents' wishes, who decide to fight for him. The film recounts a controversial case that captured the attention of the rest of Europe and America, and skillfully portrays the clash of interests between the waning power of the church, Mortara's parents, and public opinion, with irreversible consequences for all involved.
