Only in the next scene вЂ“ when we see her sharing a maternity ward with another woman, Ana (Milena Smit), their bellies swollen like balloons вЂ“ do we find ourselves in the movie suggested in the title. The whole story is literally born out of that scene, as moments later Janis and Arturo make love in a Madrid hotel room in the daytime. This framing device is very Almodovar, an admission of the self-reflexive nature of image-making вЂ“ justified further by the detail that the great grandfather was a photographer too вЂ“ its womanвЂ™s glossy aesthetic meeting an almost forensic, X-ray vision scan for truth. Then she tells him about a personal project sheвЂ™d like him to undertake: excavating the mortal remains of her great grandfather, who, like many of his compatriots, was murdered by General FrancoвЂ™s men. They strike up a conversation post shoot, sharing a laugh about using a human skull as a jokey prop вЂ“ he is a forensic anthropologist. Janis does a swell job with the shoot (asking Arturo to smile with his eyes), but sheвЂ™s after something bigger. It provides the film its gaze вЂ“ which is not just that we will see it from JanisвЂ™ point-of-view, but also that the movie will delve into what she is looking for. Penelope CruzвЂ™s character, Janis, is doing a magazine shoot with a man called Arturo (Israel Elejalde). Like most great movies, the opening shot of Parallel Mothers contains the film in its entirety.

Cast: Penelope Cruz, Milena Smit, Israel Elejalde
