Two women, worlds apart: Betty, a talented young writer, who experiences the joys of being a mother with her four-years-old son Joseph; Carole, a waitress in a downtown bar who hasn’t had it easy in life, and who, when not indifferent to her son José, is downright mean to him.
There was absolutely no reason for these two worlds to meet. That is, until Margo – Betty’s long lost, very unstable mother – comes back into her daughter’s life after a long absence. Following the tragic death of Betty’s child, Margot invents a plan worthy of her madness to prove her love to her daughter.
Destiny brings these women together to experience one unpredictable, impossible situation after another, right up until the final dénouement.
«Betty Fisher and Other Stories», a psychological thriller about three emotionally tormented mothers, is, in the end, an incredible tribute to maternal love and to the triumph of the will to live.
