The Art of Waiting

Human infertility is a growing problem (I blame the food, but what do I know?), and it's a good idea to have a movie that will raise awareness and sensitivity about the attendant suffering. This movie touches the bases, but at times it seems too undisguisedly didactic.

The tension arising from infertility causes spats between the couple, but it's left up to the audience to keep liking the characters through thick and thin while the script doesn't provide all the necessary support. The characters aren't shown displaying regret or introspection after bad behavior, and so (despite fine acting) the audience may stop identifying with the characters.
