Featured review
Two women put in the same room in a hospital during labour form a friendship. One is a successful photographer the other is a lonely ignored single child of a famous actress.
Janice is also trying to get the mass grave of her great grandfather exhumed but the Spanish civil war historical memory law is making that difficult.
This is a great movie of complex situations and how two women have to deal with the realities of the cards life has dealt them.
Penelope Cruz is up for an Oscar for this role, in my mind well deserved.
