Article Summary

  • Searchlight Pictures unveils the Nightbitch BTS featurette, spotlighting its universally relatable themes.
  • The film explores a parent's journey losing and then rediscovering their identity beyond being just 'mom' or 'dad'.

A new behind-the-scenes featurette talks about how there is a little bit of Nightbitch in everyone and how becoming a parent is, in many ways, a second coming-of-age moment for many adults. Many parents talk about losing their sense of self when they become parents, usually more so with the first kid, and how the journey to rediscovering who they are outside of the title of "mother" or "father" can be very hard to balance. There are certain subsets of society that say that you don't get to be anything else other than a parent once you become one instead of adding the role of "parent" into your already existing identity. Also, turning into a dog.
