About Mother
Desperate to be rid of her toddler in order to have an affair, a dissatisfied Beverly Hills Housewife hires a stranger to babysit and ends up getting much more than she bargained for. "Mother" is a dark and funny look at neglect, and what it really means to get what we want.
Directed by Sian Heder, Mother leans on a strong ensemble — Angela Featherstone, Ashleigh Sumner, Alejandro Furth — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2006.
