mother!

Mother! (2017) is a disturbing meditation on creation, faith, and domestic violence, unfolding in a single, claustrophobic space. Directed by Darren Aronofsky, the film stars Jennifer Lawrence as a woman whose serene home life is upended by an intrusive and ever-growing group of strangers. As the intrusions escalate, the film becomes a harrowing exploration of religious allegory and the dark side of human nature, with Lawrence’s performance as the harried and abused woman at its heart.
