The road to becoming a single a mother by choice can be emotionally exhausting and financially taxing.
Watch Kveller’s new short documentary, Matriarchs, and meet four incredible women who, despite these hurdles, did everything in their power to bring a child into their single-parent home.
From surrogacy to seemingly endless rounds of IVF, Matriarchs follows four Jewish women named Rebecca, Sara, Rachel, and Leah — yes, the biblical matriarchs! — on their journeys toward single motherhood. Raw, vulnerable, and honest, each of the four women has a touching story that you won’t want to miss.
Check out the film, below, and please spread the love! Happy Mother’s Day!
