ALL ABOUT MY MOTHER (TODO SOBRE MI MADRE) - PEDRO ALMODÓVAR (1999)

A single mother in Madrid sees her only son die on his 17th birthday as he runs to seek an actress's autograph. She goes to Barcelona to find the lad's father, a transvestite named Lola who does not know he has a child. With echoes of Lorca, All About Eve, and Streetcar Named Desire, the mothers (and fathers and actors) live out grief, love, and friendship.
