A week after giving birth, Mila finds herself caught in the fragile, exhausting blur of early motherhood. Her world is suddenly upended as the countdown begins toward her newborn son’s bris. Although circumcision is a cultural tradition she has never previously questioned, the reality of the impending ritual forces a sudden, overwhelming wave of maternal instinct to the surface. And that is even before she hears that her dad is converting to Islam…
Director, writer, and lead actress Sarah Stern crafts a deeply empathetic look at this vulnerable time when hormonal shifts collide with ancient, generational obligations. The warm-hearted No Harm Done delivers a powerful and emotionally precise blend of comedy and drama.
