Babystar
Feature Film | Fiction | 98 min | 7.1 | Color | DCP | German with English Subtitles
Since the day she was born, 16-year-old Luca has lived at the center of attention – both online and offline. But when her influencer parents decide to have another child, she spirals into a deep emptiness and begins to realize how little of herself is truly left.
Babystar, a satirical drama, explores the phenomenon of family influencing and questions whether children are not only a product of their parents, but also their commodity.
