With humor, vulnerability, and unwavering love, <em>Mums<\/em> invites viewers into the intimate world of Anna and Ari\u2014 a two-woman couple navigating the ups and downs of trying to become pregnant through science, patience, and a lot of jokes.<\/p>\n<p>Their journey spans <strong>116 weeks, 5 embryo transfers, 745 pills, and 67 injections<\/strong>\u2014and yet the film never loses its spark.
