Parallel Mothers

In this compelling drama from the expert director Pedro Almodóvar (Pain and Glory, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown), two single women find themselves both having babies at the same hospital. They share a room and develop a small relationship. When their babies are born, they go their separate ways. However, one of them suspects that their child may have been switched at birth and fears the truth that she may not want to discover. This is a deeply moving tale of romance and legacy with a brilliant cast that includes Penélope Cruz, Milena Smit, Israel Elejalde, Aitana Sánchez-Gijón, Rossy de Palma, and Julieta Serrano.
