Inconceivable follows Katie, a young mother who moves to a new town after escaping an abusive past. She becomes close to Angela, a doctor who wants another child after a hard pregnancy and miscarriage. Angela and her husband Brian invite Katie into their home as a nanny and later ask her to carry their baby. Katie hides a violent plan tied to her past as an egg donor, and the story turns into a dark home thriller about trust, motherhood, and obsession.
The film gives its main attention to women, and Brian stays in a smaller support role while Angela, Katie, and Donna drive most of the action. Katie also has sex with Linda, another woman, in a brief scene that adds adult sexuality but does not become a lasting relationship. The story spends most of its time on surrogacy, infertility, abuse, and the wish to be a mother. The danger comes from Katie’s violent obsession, while Angela tries to protect her children and prove that she is being framed.

Breakdown
These are the editorial factors and ratings behind our score for Inconceivable.
Woke representation / casting
The film places Angela, Katie, and Donna in the most important adult roles. Brian is a supporting husband, and the women drive the family conflict. Baker called the project a “women’s movie,” and Whelan called the script “female-driven.” The cast does not show a broad race or identity pattern, so the gender focus is a mild signal.
24%
Woke political dialogue
Not present. The characters discuss fertility, family, suspicion, and abuse. No clear lines push DEI, gender politics, or activist ideas.
0%
Identity-driven story themes
The story repeatedly puts women at the center of the family conflict. The film focuses on motherhood, infertility, surrogacy, and control over a child’s future. Katie is briefly shown having sex with Linda, another woman. Katie’s violent obsession drives the plot, while the same-sex scene stays a side moment.
27%
Western institutional / cultural critique
Not present. The movie shows a fertility process and family suspicion, but it does not build a modern activist attack on Western institutions or social norms.

Creator track record context
Baker’s stored profile shows a modest representation-focused pattern and no sustained activist record. His interview called this film a “women’s movie” and said he wanted to fight for women in Hollywood. Chloe King and most producers have low or zero stored scores, while Hilary Shor has a stronger record of projects centered on black stories. The overall creator track record is mild.
