The Last Conception

Plenty of secrets and surprises in this romp through suburban american culture with Indian heritage.

It is fun and laughs are present at the moments of awkward turning of circumstances. The Gay couple is not examined but celebrated and the sub culture of Indian Americans is treated without stereo typing and with much mirth. I felt like I had a window into an area where much understanding is sometimes absent and it allowed me to laugh and love with the characters. Family at its most vulnerable is the family spiritual and this movie takes that relationship up a notch. Great light hearted moments.

This entertaining film manages to capture the awkward moments between family members when a young professional "comes out" to their family with a fiancee in tow, but the film never takes itself too seriously either.

A happier, more light-hearted version of the Royal Tennebaums. It speaks of modern relationships, family and romantic love and looks at our individual responsibility to adhere to expected traditions when we create our own families or to pave our own way. I laughed a lot watching this film and especially loved the grandmother and her entourage.

Quirky, joyful and witty without trying too hard. If you enjoy Indie Films that are more about heart than car chases, you will love this one.

You don't often see movies tagged "gay" and "buddhist" when searching for a light-hearted comedy on a Friday night, but that is exactly how this film captures a unique niche so perfectly!

Nazanin Mandi as Savarna, and Marshall Manesh as her somewhat confused but sympathetic father, headline the cast in this original take on Indian parental angst.

I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this endearing little movie, that explored coming out, Buddhism, IVF with a friend, and a host of other issues without ever taking itself too seriously.

Matt Richards as Savarna's' sympathetic friend Jackson, ready to donate his sperm for a good cause, is hilarious in a nice understated performance.

But it is Mandi as Savarna who really lights up the screen with her brooding good looks, impossible hair styles and mysterious eyes that make it impossible for the viewer to turn away whenever she is on screen.

In the end it's all about family and a very special little girl who might be more just the family's salvation.

Give this little gem a spin!

The Agnes Films Production, 'The Last Conception' proved to be a surprise package. Producer/Director Gabriella Ledesma is clearly a slick operator, and she must have been as impressed by this lighthearted story, as we both were.

This is a thoroughly professional, believable and entertaining format, that deals with a modern day dilemma in the most entertaining of ways. We would like to think, that it will not only entertain, but also help modern day issues be seen less contentiously.

Full marks to all concerned, and a huge vote of confidence to the stories author Gabriel Constans.

After a rough day I stumbled across this amazing little nugget of a movie. OMG it did not disappoint. Happy, smart, funny and witty! The creators should all feel very proud-they did an amazing job. The trailer doesn't do this movie justice. Wow! What a feel good film - hilarious! Can't wait to recommend to all of my friends and family. Emma Bruce - Author 10/10 it's got my vote!

As a side note I'd just like to say thank you for creating such a hilariously funny feel good movie, it really did help lift my mood. Hopefully much can be said for others who are perhaps having a touch time. Five Stars all the way!
