The Lost Daughter

Adapted from Elena Ferrante's novel, tells the story of middle-aged literature professor Leda whose Greek vacation is disrupted by a young mother who triggers painful memories of her own motherhood. This psychological drama explores the contradictions of motherhood, conflicts between female self-realization and maternal expectations, and society's idealizing pressure on the mother role through complex narrative structure.

Roma

Roma

Writer and director Alfonso Cuarón has described Roma as a love letter to all the women who raised him. It's a beautiful rumination on all the 'hoods' women go through: girlhood, womanhood, motherhood. A domestic drama about a maid and the middle-class family she cares for in Mexico City, the story is told in crisp black-and-white, but it doesn't take long to see that a woman's work never ventures far out of the gray area.
