Our suggestions
A woman flies from Buenos Aires to be present for the birth of the child she has arranged to adopt. When the child is born, she is confronted with a demand from the biological mother's family for $10,000 and an adoption process confounded with moral and legal ambiguity.
"The protagonist, Bárbara Lennie, carries all the tension of the movie in her incredible performance. 'A Sort of Family' messes with anyone's head, especially by telling the story of an adoptive mother trying to keep her son. It is a strong psychological drama, masterfully executed by Argentinean director Diego Lerman."
