CRY IT OUT by Molly Smith Metzler

Directed by Lucretia Marie

Four months ago, Jessie was a corporate lawyer with a glamorous Manhattan life. Today, she's in dirty yoga pants and covered in breast milk, trying to comfort a screaming newborn. So, when she spies a fellow new mom and neighbor at the local Stop & Shop, she vaults over the cantaloupe to introduce herself. One coffee quickly becomes a daily coffee, as Jessie and Lina laugh through the highs and lows of motherhood. But their intimacy is punctured when the guy from the mansion up on the cliff appears asking if the pair will include his wife, a new mom who is having “a hard time.”

A comedy with dark edges, Cry It Out takes an honest look at the absurdities of being home with a baby, the power of female friendship, the dilemma of going back to work, and the effect class has on parenthood in America
