As a baby I enter the world for the first time. In the uterus I am already able to feel and experience my first sensations and emotions. Birth is a big step in my life. My first years involve a complex sensorial world. Later, I won’t be able to remember any of this, but, won’t it leave an imprint somewhere?
The baby that I once was will seek out and questions the “archaeologists” of early childhood: neurobiologists, psychologists and medical professionals to analyze the origins and consequences of these imprints in our lives.These experts include Laura Gutman and Michel Odent as well as Xavier Serrano, Eulàlia Torras de Beà and María Montero Ríos.
In my journey as a mother I will also meet passionate professionals, like Cristina Aznar and Ramón Mauduit from the "Hazi Hezi" center in the Basque City of San Sebastian who guide families through pregnancy, childbirth and parenting. They view infancy as a sacred period, when we must provide for and respect every infant’s needs. These families, like me then, desire that their children experience a healthy and nurturing childhood, better than that which we experienced.
The baby’s voice will shrill together these imprints to raise questions which don’t have definitive answers but encourage us to reflect on the adults of the future.
Aztarnak-Huellas-Imprints is a creative documentary which will screen at film festivals then be released thematically in cinemas and TV, as well as online. It will be mostly shot in Basque and Spanish with interviews in English, French and German.
The aim of the documentary is to help us reflect on the importance of early childhood, beginning from in utero in a search for those silent imprints or traces we all carry with us. It is not intended to be a guide of how to best care for a child, rather it will put the focus on that stage of life which is so important for our development and reflect on how it affects us as adults.
With the crowdfunding campaign we aim to raise the funding necessary to shoot all that is need to head into editing. We also aim to build our audience so that we can prove the broad interest in such a subject.
When I first became pregnant with my daughter, I started questioning many of the prevalent and widely accepted notions on pregnancy and childbirth. Until then I was afraid of labour and thought it would be better to be anesthetized; the child “taken out” without pain, in the “easiest” way possible. I believed that if my body, starting with only two cells, was capable of growing a human being for 9 months, it must be able to bring this child into the world in a natural and harmonious way? Nature would have a plan, right?
It was at the “Hazi Hezi” centre with Cristina Aznar and Ramón Mauduit, I felt empowered to want to have a natural birth. But the current health system in Spain did not allow for such alternative methods; I felt betrayed by the system that way supposed to be caring for me.
I soon realized that childbirth is only one of these milestones. What happens next, during the puerperium, was ready to connect with my baby, a baby that is when born is already connected and dependent upon me?
I began to become aware of many things, reading, attending breastfeeding groups. We were supported so we also reflected on a respectful upbringing. But then I began to be aware of my own shortcomings in trying to carry out a more conscious and respectful upbringing of my daughter. I’m still struggling with this, perhaps I always will.
Are the traces of childhood everlasting? Do they transform over time? And if so, how? What can we do about them? How can we work with them? Besides, was our childhood really so terrible? Have we all suffered so much? Many say yes, although we hardly remember it, because it is in our subconscious. Is the root of many problems in our society such as violence, or lack of solidarity, based in our childhoods?
Science is uncovering the importance of early childhood, including in utero experiences and birth in adulthood. We think we know more and more, and we believe that we do it better than our parents, but do we really have happier children? Are the real needs of a child more respected today? Can we ever be a more unified and less violent society?
Why, if this relationship between early childhood and the subsequent development of the individual is scientifically proven, do we, as a society ignore it? How do we resolve its subsequent contradictions? For example, why can’t a working woman who does not want to give up her professional life also be a caring mother?
"To change the world, we must first change the way the babies are being born."
Dr. Michel Odent, french obstetrician, visionary and poet.
