Motherhood: Synopsis

Shot entirely on location in New York’s West Village, "Motherhood" is a comedy distilling the dilemmas of the maternal state into the trials and tribulations of one pivotal day. "Motherhood" forms a genre of one – no other movie has dedicated itself in quite this way to probing exactly what it takes to be a mother, with both humor and authenticity. "Motherhood," a funny and poignant look at the daily challenges mothers everywhere face, is a hymn to the trials and joys of raising children and the necessity of not losing yourself in the process.
