Review of The Second Mother (2015) by Netflic — 13 Sep 2015
It is a drama about a live-in housekeeper that had to leave her own daughter and raise her employer’s son instead.
The woman did not stay with her daughter for her entire pre-adult life.
Then one day, she gets a call from her now eighteen year-old daughter. After years of refusing to talk to her mother, she had decided to come over to stay with her. This film is about family relations, the nature of motherhood and much more.
It is done masterfully, with humor and realism.
The acting is excellent, especially the protagonist.
This movie is in Portuguese, with English subtitles.
It's one of the best movies I have seen this year.
