And What Does Your Mother Do?

AND WHAT DOES YOUR MOTHER DO? is a humorous film which cleverly uses the technique of speeded-up action to expose basic inequalities built into the traditional family structure, which lay the bulk of responsibility and pressure on women.

Directed by Grupo Cine-Mujer, Ma. Cristina Suaza, Eulalia Carrizosa, Margarita Medina, Consuelo Rojas, Guentcy Armenta, Luz Helena Restrepo, Sara Bright, Marta Cecilia Herrera, Main Suaza, Teresa Fernandez, And What Does Your Mother Do? leans on a strong ensemble — Guentcy Armenta, Sebastian Ospina, Andrea Puerta — 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 1982.
