At 38, film director Victoria Mapplebeck is single, pregnant, and struggling financially. Over 20 years, Victoria documents her life and that of her son Jim, navigating two generations of absent fathers, her own breast cancer diagnosis, and Jim's turbulent adolescence. She initially recorded their lives with a DVCAM camera, later using five generations of smartphones. Victoria amassed hundreds of hours of footage, capturing key moments in Jim’s life, from his reassuring thumbs-up during her first scan to his first day of college. *Motherboard* is an unfiltered look at the joys and challenges of solo motherhood throughout a lifetime.
