The Ballad of Being a Better Mother 2026

Help me make amends for the sins of our parenthood.

Directed by Miki Mikaili

Every morning, a middle-aged mother prepares breakfast for her family, as part of their daily routine that had never been fulfilled before. Life seems to carry on as normal, but something feels strange beneath the surface of this routine. When the village authorities arrive with a message, the truth that has long been hidden slowly begins to unfold.
