Newborn

Survival can be physical, emotional, and spiritual.
Newborn is the story of Chris Newborn who struggles to adjust to life following seven years in solitary confinement. As he attempts to reconnect with his family, he encounters mental health challenges associated with his transition to society.

In this vertical episode of The Watchers, Victoria Bert and Kevin Marable review Newborn, the film from Mansa.

We talk about the performances, the story, the emotional weight, and how the movie explores survival and isolation. Newborn is a quiet but heavy film about what people carry, what they are forced to endure, and what it takes to make it through when the world around them feels impossible.
