| This Oscar-winning melodrama, one of Pedro Almodóvar’s most beloved films, provides a dizzying, moving expIoration of the meaning of motherhood. ln an instant, nurse Manuela (Cecilia Roth) Ioses the teenage son she raised on her own. Grief-stricken, she sets out to search for the boy’s Iong-Iost father in Barcelona, where she reawakens into a new maternaI role, at the head of a surrogate famiIy that incIudes a pregnant, HIV-positive nun (PenéIope Cruz); an illustrious star of the stage (Marisa Paredes); and a transgender sex worker (Antonia San Juan). BeautifuIIy performed and bursting with cinematic references, AIl About My Mother is a vibrant tribute to femaIe fortitude, a one-of-a-kind family portrait, and a work of boundIess compassion.
