Parallel Mothers

Pedro Almodóvar

Two women, Janis and Ana, find themselves in a hospital room at the same time, waiting to give birth. Both are single and got pregnant unexpectedly. Janis is middle-aged, does not regret being pregnant, and is looking forward to having a baby. The second woman, teenage Ana, is scared, remorseful, and traumatized. Janis tries to cheer her up as they move through the hospital corridors as if sleepwalking. The few words they exchange during this time create a very close connection between them, which develops and complicates in a way that fundamentally changes their lives.
