BABES follows inseparable childhood friends Eden (Ilana Glazer) and Dawn
(Michelle Buteau), having grown up together in NYC, now firmly in
different phases of adulthood. When carefree an single Eden decides to
have a baby on her own after a one-night stand, their friendship faces
its greatest challenge. BABES delves into the complexities of female
friendship with a blend of laughter, tears and labor pains.
Generous and warm and
howling funny, there is such a light touch to Babes, you might not even
clock the depth of its observations – its inspections – of body and
heart both. - Kimberley Jones, Austin Chronicle
Director Pamela Adlon has
done the nearly impossible: crafted a film that mines comic gold from
people being loving to one another while acting responsibly. - Oliver Jones, Observer
