Review of Mother and Child (2009) by Eunice G — 30 Jun 2010
Director Rodrigo Farcia once again reveals himself as a master storyteller with an uncanny understanding of the psyche of his unique characters. With strong directional vision, he dares us to go to uncharted territory in a way that is both effortless and beautiful.
The nuanced performances by this stellar cast lets you into the affecting existence of these women. Moving and profound, Mother and Child exposes the complex layers of life's challenges while remaining poetic and ethereal, yet always very real. This is a powerful film about forgiveness, the choices we make, the chances we miss and the power of the unbreakable bond between a mother and child.
