TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT
Dir. Liina Triškina-Vanhatalo, 2018 | 102 minutes
When Erik’s ex-girlfriend informs him that she has just given birth to his child, the 30-year-old construction worker is faced with a difficult decision: agree to put the baby up for adoption or raise her as a single parent. Deciding to take on parenthood, Erik’s life changes drastically as he struggles with the practical and societal challenges of being a single father. Enriched with director Liina Triškina-Vanhatalo’s background as a documentarian, Take It or Leave It tells a touching story of adversity, masculinity, and love with an unflinching realist approach.
