When 35-year-old Ruth ruins a baby shower with her juvenile antics, her old high school cronies-who are all mothers now-promptly de-friend her. But when she is later mistakenly thought to be ‘with child’ she is inexplicably welcomed back into the group. Although she initially tries to come clean, the many perks of pregnancy are far too seductive to ignore. Preggoland is a comedy about our societal obsession with babies and the lengths we’ll go to be part of a club.
“But for all the implausible, coincidental and slapstick moments, there's a caustic veracity and trenchant social commentary in "Preggoland” that rings particularly true, especially regarding the value placed on mothers over childless women, as well as the invasive proprietorship people feel about pregnant women's bodies. This treatise on what to expect when you're not expecting offers up biting cultural satire with a hearty dose of humanity and humor to boot." – Katie Walsh, LA Times
