Maggie Gyllenhaal, Daryl Hannah, Marcia Gay Harden, Susan Lynch, Rita Moreno, Mary Steenburgen, and Lili Taylor star in Casa de los Babys, an intense and provocative ensemble drama. Casa 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 Se Mu(Rita Moreno), 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 writer/director John Sayles (Sunshine State).
