BFS screens 'Second Mother'

An excitingly fresh take on some classic themes and ideas, The Second Mother centers around Val, a hard-working live-in housekeeper in modern day Sao Paulo. Val is perfectly content to take care of every one of her wealthy employers’ needs, from cooking and cleaning to being a surrogate mother to their teenage son, who she has raised since he was a toddler. But when Val’s estranged daughter Jessica suddenly shows up the unspoken but intrinsic class barriers that exist within the home are thrown into disarray. Jessica is smart, confident, and ambitious, and refuses to accept the upstairs/downstairs dynamic, testing relationships and loyalties and forcing everyone to reconsider what family really means. In Portuguese with subtitles, The Second Mother runs 114 minutes. Rated R, Rotten Tomatoes scores it at 95 percent. Admission to Procrastinator films is $2.00; $1.00 with a food donation to Can the Griz food drive. Parking is south of the SUB in the lot on the corner of 7th and Grant.
