After being wrongfully convicted of gang-raping two little girls during the Satanic Panic witchhunt of the 80s and 90s, four Latina lesbians fight against mythology, homophobia, and prosecutorial fervor in this now-classic gay rights 'True Crime' tale that helped exonerate the 'San Antonio Four'. The film received a Peabody Award, a GLAAD award for 'Outstanding Documentary', and a Critic's Choice Award for 'Best First Feature'.
Taking us into the heart of the planet’s busiest maternity hospital, MOTHERLAND drops the viewer like an unseen outsider into the hospital’s stream of activity. At first, the subjects are strangers. But soon thereafter, the mothers' stories become absorbingly intimate, rendering their struggles increasingly familiar.
