Parallel Mothers by Pedro Almodóvar is now at the cinemas :))
Pedro Almodóvar’s latest is many things at once: a thriller about parentage and a meditation on motherhood.
Two women, Janis and Ana, meet in a hospital where they are about to give birth. Both are single and became pregnant by accident. Janis, middle-aged, has no regrets and is exultant. The other, Ana, an adolescent, is scared and repentant. Janis tries to encourage her as they move like sleepwalkers through the hospital corridors. The few words they exchange in these hours will create a very close link between them, which by chance will develop and complicate, changing their lives in a decisive way.
For those who can’t go on a Monday and are up for something more adventurous, we ( Nuria and Maria ) are heading off to London Saturday 26 February and we would love you to join us.
