Nest(2025)

Nest is a provocative body horror film following a trans woman grappling with an unwanted pregnancy. Consumed by ambivalence about motherhood, she endures a deeply traumatic labour that leaves her fundamentally changed. When her husband recoils in disgust at what she has given birth to, she finds herself cornered—forced into increasingly desperate choices to reclaim her identity and salvage their fractured relationship. The film unflinches from the physical and emotional toll of transformation, exploring themes of acceptance, bodily autonomy, and the cost of survival. Raw and unforgettable, Nest challenges conventional narratives around pregnancy and family, delivering a stark meditation on what it means to become someone new.
