Spanish maestro Pedro Almodovar is at the top of his game in his 1999 Oscar winner for Best International Feature. After the accidental death of her only son, hospital worker Manuela (Cecilia Roth) embarks on a journey from Madrid to Barcelona in search of her son’s father, a man he never knew. While there, she becomes part of a theater troupe and makeshift family of women that includes Penelope Cruz as a pregnant, HIV-positive nun. All About my Mother is a colorful and luminous tribute to women, actresses and motherhood. In Spanish and Catalan with English subtitles.
