Where Do Children Come From?

Where Do Children Come From? (2008) is a Russian comedy by Marina Tsurtsumiya you can watch online on iFILM. Pavel is young and rather pleased with himself: a good job, a striking girlfriend, an expensive car and a mother who adores him.

His mother, though, keeps a different ledger. By her count a son with no wife and no grandchildren has nothing at all, and therefore no happiness. So she throws the full force of maternal love into fixing that, with the zeal of a professional matchmaker. Pavel dodges and protests, but there is simply no defence against his mother's logic. Larisa Udovichenko is a treat as the unstoppable parent.

This is a light family comedy built on a deceptively simple title question and the tagline "Everything you just thought is wrong." It doesn't reach for depth; it is an easy evening watch about the small domestic wars everyone recognises. Stream Where Do Children Come From? (2008) online on iFILM.
