LA therapist Karen is haunted by the fact that she gave her daughter up for adoption years ago. Finally deciding to track her down, Karen discovers Elizabeth is now a fast-talking lawyer at a high-profile firm dealing with her own issues. In the same city, broody baker Lucy explores adoption.

Reminiscent of Alejandro Iñárritu’s first forays behind the camera—told in a similar mosaic style of storytelling, Mother and Child explores the joys and sorrows of modern parenthood with soulful, multi-layered sensitivity. Starring Annette Bening, Samuel L. Jackson, and Naomi Watts!
