Delicate State follows the journey of Paula and Charlie, a wealthy couple living in a comfortable bubble, as they prepare for the arrival of their first child. They document their pregnancy through a series of video diaries, capturing their excitement and anticipation as they plan for the future. But as the world around them becomes increasingly divided and unstable, their idyllic life is soon shattered.
When civil unrest breaks out in their city, Paula and Charlie are forced to confront the harsh realities of the world outside their privileged bubble. As they witness the violence and suffering around them, they begin to realize the impact their own actions - or lack thereof - have on the world.
As their due date approaches, Paula and Charlie are faced with a difficult decision: stay safe and comfortable within their own walls, or risk everything to bring their child into a world torn apart by war. In the end, they choose to face the unknown, embarking on a dangerous journey to safety and survival.
Shot with a minimalist approach, Delicate State is a stark and unflinching look at the challenges and choices faced by young parents in a world divided by conflict and politics. With powerful performances from its cast, the film offers a gripping exploration of the human cost of war and the resilience of the human spirit.
