Parallel Mothers (2021) on Netflix

Two women, Janis and Ana, coincide in a hospital room where they are going to give birth. Both are single and became pregnant by accident. Janis, middle-aged, doesn't regret it and she is exultant. The other, Ana, an adolescent, is scared, repentant and traumatized. Janis tries to encourage her while they move like sleepwalkers along the hospital corridors. The few words they exchange in these hours will create a very close link between the two, which by chance develops and complicates, and changes their lives in a decisive way. —Sony PicturesPlot summaryAdd synopsisTaglinesNew York Film Festival 59 Closing Night SelectionGenreDramaMotion Picture Rating (MPAA)Rated R for some sexualityParents guideAdd content advisory
