Badmom(2019)

Overview

Everybody has a mother. But still, motherhood remains a state filled with silences. Between society’s mandate to be a ‘good mother’ —always patient, caring and happy— and the private reality of mothers around the world, a huge void in understanding remains. Aiming to break this silence through candid interviews with mothers of all backgrounds and generations in Latin America, Malamadre narrates the untold story of motherhood, from the mothers’ point of view.
