MOTHERLAND
by Ramona Diaz. 2017. 94 min.
Taking us into the heart of the planet's busiest maternity hospital, the viewer is dropped like an unseen outsider into the hospital's stream of activity. At first, the people are strangers. As the film continues, it's absorbingly intimate, rendering the women at the heart of the story increasingly familiar.
This event is a collaboration with POV, PBS' award-winning nonfiction film series.
