My Mother Likes Women |

Monday, October 18, 5:15pm Three very different sisters have at least one thing
in common: they can’t get over the fact that their mother
likes women! When Sofía (ALL ABOUT MY MOTHER’s Rosa
María Sardà) reveals that her post-divorce romance
is with another woman, her daughters react with both shock and over-the-top
despair. Convinced that Sofía’s girlfriend Eliska is
a conniving gold-digger, the sisters set out to expose the fraud
and break up the blissful couple. While conservative oldest sister
Gimena frets about how her own family will react to the news, and
youngest sister Sol performs an explicit rock song about her mother’s
new love, it’s middle sister Elvira (TALK TO HER’s Leonor
Watling) who’s chosen to carry out their deceptively simple
plan: seduce Eliska and prove her unfaithfulness. In carrying out
their reckless mission, the trio learns some important lessons and
the consequences of meddling in affairs of the heart. MY MOTHER LIKES WOMEN; Ines Paris and Daniela Fejerman, directors; 2002; Spain; 96 minutes; 35mm; (in Spanish with English subtitles) Harvard Exit Theatre |
