Casa de los Babys

Directed by John Sayles

With Maggie Gyllenhaal, Daryl Hannah, Marcia Gay Harden, Susan Lynch and Mary Steenburgen

A group of women, including Skipper, the wealthy young Jennifer and the domineering Nan, journey from the United States to South America in hopes of easily adopting children. Unfortunately, their plans are complicated by local laws that require the women to live in the foreign nation for an extended period before they can take in orphaned kids. While stuck in another country, the women bond as they share their aspirations and anxieties.
