This week’s Cinechats selection: Parallel Mothers

The campus community is invited to enjoy a film screening presented by Cinechats, which is supported in part by ºÚÁÏÍø, Durham College, Arts Forum and the Durham Council for the Arts. Age restrictions apply, as most films are rated for those 18 years of age and older.

This week’s selection is (Spain/France, 2021).

Two women, Janis and Ana, meet in a hospital room where they are going to give birth. Both are single and became pregnant by accident. Janis, middle-aged, doesn't regret it and she is overjoyed. Ana, an adolescent, is scared and traumatized. Janis tries to encourage Ana while they move like sleepwalkers along the hospital corridors. The few words they exchange in these hours will create a very close link between the two, which by chance develops and complicates, and changes their lives in a decisive way.

  • When: Thursday, July 6 at 6:30 p.m.
  • Where:Gordon Willey Building, Room C-113
