Casa de los babys

Casa de los babys captures six American women at one of the most emotionally charged moments of their lives - each one on the verge of adopting a baby. Trapped together in an exotic South American motel run by the colorful Señora Muñoz, they anxiously wait for the local bureaucracy to process their adoption of newborns from the nearby orphanage. Over the weeks, they share hope and desperation surrounding their overwhelming desires to have a child. A poignant, sharp, insightful look at clashing cultures, modern maternity and the mystery of fate, Casa de los Babys is the latest film from highly acclaimed writer/director John Sayles (Sunshine State, Lone Star, City of Hope). World premiere at Toronto film festival 2003 and US theatrical premiere October 2003. Swedish theatrical release in spring 2004.
