Comedy Astronaut, forest-keeper, cartoonist. Young Rakel has a whole lot of other plans than becoming a mother. She would rather party, get drunk or stoned instead of sitting hours on the toilet. But she can't ignore it. Is it her or the baby?

	Media	Author	Review
		Sarah Ward Screendaily	"An amusing and thoughtful story about a surprise pregnancy (...) Funny, forthright and eclectic, this repeatedly perceptive film takes life’s messiness in its stride."
		Marta Bałaga Cineuropa	"Yngvild Sve Flikke takes pregnancy clichés and beats them to death with a Jo staff (...) [A] very acerbic, very special little film"
		David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter	"'Ninjababy' is funny and insightful, imaginative and unsentimental. The movie offers a fresh take on a familiar situation"
		Kate Erbland IndieWire	"[It] ably straddles the line between humor and heart (...) While 'Ninjababy' isn’t afraid to get deep (...) Flikke is skilled at keeping things amusing"
		Christopher Schobert The Film Stage	"A delightfully unruly, genuinely moving portrait of a young woman stuck in a situation with no easy way out. Smartly plotted and downright hilarious"
		Cath Clarke The Guardian	"Despite kooky touches including a talking foetus, this is an insightful look at a young woman’s life (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
