The story follows Anna (played by Nicole Kidman), a woman who has been dealing with the death of her husband, Sean, who passed away ten years earlier.

Anna is at a point in her life where she is about to recommit herself, but her world is rocked when a ten-year-old boy, who calls himself ‘Sean’, appears in her life.

The boy, played by Cameron Bright, claims to be the reincarnation of her late husband. As Anna is confronted with this startling claim, she begins to question her own reality and feelings.

The boy displays surprising insight into Sean's life and shares memories that only he could know, which provokes a mixture of confusion and fascination in Anna.

The film unfolds in an atmosphere of emotional tension, where Anna is drawn to the boy, but also faces disbelief from those around her.

Her family and friends, including her fiancé and her mother, cannot accept the idea that a child could be the reincarnation of her husband. As the story progresses, Anna finds herself caught between her desire to believe in the possibility of a lost love and the reality of her current situation.

"Birth" sounds like a deeply emotional and thought-provoking film. The idea of a lost love returning in an unexpected way is both intriguing and unsettling. Nicole Kidman’s performance and the film’s cinematography seem to add to its depth. I love stories that challenge reality and emotions. Great review!
