Synopsis

Two unmarried women who have become pregnant by accident and are about to give birth meet in a hospital room: Janis, in her late-thirties, unrepentant and happy; Ana, a teenager, remorseful and frightened.

Community Reviews

Audiences find 'Parallel Mothers' a compelling blend of personal and historical narratives, with Penélope Cruz's performance particularly praised. The film intertwines the intimate lives of two mothers with Spain's haunting past, creating a rich tapestry of emotion and memory. However, some viewers felt the plot was predictable and the historical connections somewhat forced, detracting from the emotional impact.

👍 Penélope Cruz's performance shines.

👎 Some find the historical narrative forced.
