20 years ago, Vera was separated from her son at birth. She has been searching for him ever since, but his file has mysteriously disappeared from the Spanish archives. 20 years ago, Cora adopted a son, Egoz. Now fate is bringing the three of them together. Together, they are going to make up for lost time and take their revenge on those who stole it from them.
Inspired by the scandal of the 300,000 babies taken from their mothers by Franco's regime, Dos Madres is an inventive puzzle novel in the form of a tribute to the political films of the 1970s and a great story of friendship.
Dos Madres is initially surprising in the rigour and originality of its highly graphic mise-en-scène, but all the better to plunge us into the heart of its heroine's quest to find her son, who was taken from her, and who is determined to take her revenge on the Spanish government. A must-see! - Atmosphères 53.
