“NO COUNTRY FOR MOTHERS” BREAKS WORLD RECORD FOR MOST PRODUCERS ON A FILM AHEAD OF JUNE 15 PREMIERE
Moms First releases trailer today and launches one of the largest grassroots screening tours in documentary history, with more than 1000 community screenings slated across the country
May 7, 2026 NEW YORK, NY – Moms First, the national nonprofit fighting for America’s moms, today unveiled No Country for Mothers, a feature documentary that has broken the world record for the most producers credited on a film. The record-breaking film, directed by Raeshem Nijhon and produced by Emmy-nominated Culture House Media, Tan France’s French Tuck Media, formula company Bobbie, and national non-profit organization Moms First, will premiere on June 15, 2026. The trailer is available now at NoCountryForMothers.com.
Beginning the night of the premiere, No Country for Mothers will roll out through a historic grassroots screening tour, with more than 1000 screenings hosted by moms and allies in all 50 states. The tour is designed to translate the film’s message into local action on the policies that shape moms’ lives, including paid family leave and affordable child care.
A WORLD RECORD BUILT BY MOMS
The record-setting producer credit reflects the film’s central premise: that motherhood in America is not a private struggle but a collective one. More than 2,500 mothers, caregivers, and advocates signed on to support the film, share their story, and host a screening – beating the previous world record of 1,468 producers held since 1991 by the Japanese film Senso to Seishin. With this world record, No Country for Mothers turns its production into a movement.
“This country asks mothers to do the impossible, and then blames us when we cannot,” said Reshma Saujani, founder and CEO of Moms First. “The system was never built for us. We are done being told we have to choose between our ambition and our kids. That is the truth at the heart of No Country for Mothers, and it is why so many of us came together to make it. It is time we build a country for mothers, and this film is how we start.”
AN EXTENDED LOOK AT THE FILM
The trailer, released today at NoCountryForMothers.com, offers a deeper look at the film’s investigation into the lies used throughout American history to distract and divide mothers. Through archival footage, intimate interviews, and on-the-ground reporting, No Country for Mothers follows Reshma Saujani as she learns about the manufactured divides, meets moms mothers living in the messy middle, and leads a national movement to reunite moms and win historic support, including affordable child care.
“As a mom of 3- and 7-year-old boys, this film feels like it’s speaking my mind,” said Director Raeshem Nijhon. “It captures the pressure, the complexity, and the often unseen but pervasive politics shaping motherhood today. This is exactly the work we believe in at Culture House, where we bridge policy and culture through storytelling. So when the opportunity to work with Reshma and Moms First – who are at the forefront of the motherhood movement in this country – arose, we dove in. As a filmmaker, I want moms to know: this film is for you. We see you. We’ve got you. I hope it compels us to band together, break through the culture wars, and demand real progress that lifts up all moms in America.”
A PREMIERE, AND A MOVEMENT
The film will premiere on Monday, June 15, 2026, at an exclusive screening in New York City. Following the premiere, over a 1000 grassroots screenings will take place in communities across the country, hosted by mothers, advocates, faith leaders, educators, and elected officials. Organizers say the tour will be one of the largest community-led documentary rollouts ever attempted in the United States. The tour is timed to the 250th anniversary of America.
“We’re not putting the film up online yet because we want people to watch it together,” continued Saujani. “Moms in this country have been getting conned since the ink dried on the Constitution. When moms watch the documentary and learn the history, I think they’re going to be outraged and fired up. And in my experience, there’s nothing more powerful than a pissed off mom.”
Hosts and audiences will be invited to take action immediately following each screening, with tools to join Moms First’s organizing network, get informed ahead of the midterms, and support state and federal policies that benefit mothers and families.
“When Reshma told me what she was building, I knew I had to be part of it,” said Tan France, executive producer. “As a parent, I see every day how much moms hold up, and how little support they get in return. No Country for Mothers is a love letter to them, and a wake-up call to the rest of us. I hope every person who watches it walks away ready to do something about it.”
“Bobbie was built on a simple idea: when you actually listen to moms, you build something better,” said Sarah Hardy, Co-Founder of Bobbie, the first mom-founded and led infant formula brand in the U.S. “That same idea is what makes No Country for Mothers so important. As an executive producer on this film, we are proud to stand alongside Moms First and the thousands of moms who refused to be invisible any longer. The story of motherhood in this country is finally being told by mothers themselves, and we cannot wait for the world to hear it.”
