"Nasty Baby manages to challenge notions of violence, morality, innocence, parenthood, and responsible child-rearing with a keen disregard for audience expectations." – Indiewire

In his latest film, Sebastián Silva directs and stars as a Brooklyn artist trying to have a child with his boyfriend (TV on the Radio's Tunde Adebimpe) and their best friend (Kristen Wiig), whilst developing a seismically awkward art project about the experience. Complications arise, however, when a malevolent vagrant known as "The Bishop" makes life uncomfortable for all involved.

Winner of the Teddy Award for Best Queer Film at the Berlin Film Festival, Nasty Baby begins as a nuanced, satirical relationship comedy but descends into an uncomfortably twisted drama, with Silva unleashing the darker instincts he brought to past explorations of human behaviour.

"Silva sticks it to a comfortable, complacent and presumably morally liberal audience … and twists the knife, to thought-provoking ends." – Hollywood Reporter
