The vast, largely unmapped terrain of a middle-aged mom's creative life gets a witchily weird, uncompromisingly assured showcase in Georgian director Ana Urushadze's exhilaratingly offbeat oddity.
Scary Mother is a new film that formally sets itself apart from the glut of recent neo-realist cinema emerging from Georgia.
Although it's [director] Ana Urushadze's debut film, it seems more like the work of a veteran director who controls the medium perfectly. [Full review in Spanish]
Scary Mother is a quietly riveting film that is richly layered with themes of identity, traditional gender roles, sacrifice, and hypocrisy filtered through the lens of a middle-aged mother of 3.
Scary Mother has an intriguing concept but doesn't do a very good job of pulling you in...Along with confusing plot and unexplained characters popping up for random scenes never to be seen again, you will probably lose interest halfway through.
Virginia Woolf's iconic aphorism that "a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction" comes to life in the most allegorical of ways in Scary Mother.
