Mother

Streaming video - 2016

Diana Prieto is pregnant and taking care of her autistic son Martin has become overwhelming. She hires Luz, a gifted caregiver from the Philippines and Martin quickly begins improving under Luz's supervision, but Diana's worried that he's only being taught to speak Filipino. Diana begins to suspect that Luz is using the language barrier and voodoo to turn Martin against Diana and into something far more sinister... Official Selection at the **SXSW Film Festival**. "*It's anchored by a phenomenal performance, and it's creepy and disturbing enough to provoke a response*." - Brian Tallerico, ***RogerEbert.com***
