Plot

On the poignant occasion of Mother's Day, three lifelong friends, the vivacious Carol (Angela Bassett), the spirited Gillian (Patricia Arquette), and the pragmatic Helen (Felicity Huffman), find themselves adrift in the uncharted waters of Otherhood - a phase post-motherhood where they must redefine their identities. Feeling overlooked and sidelined, they embark on an impromptu road trip from their suburban lives to the bustling heart of New York City, on a quest to reconnect with their adult sons. The city, vibrant yet indifferent, becomes the backdrop of their heartwarming journey of self-discovery. As they navigate the complicated dynamics of their relationships with their sons, they realize that the change they yearn for extends beyond their children's lives. The journey, initially born out of a desire to relate, transforms into a soulful exploration of their own lives, compelling them to reassess their bonds with their friends, spouses, and most importantly, themselves. Otherhood, a grounded yet celebratory comedy, offers an intimate look into a stage often left unexplored. It's a captivating story about mothers, sons, friendship, and the continual process of self-discovery, reminding us that life's greatest journeys are often those taken within.
