Synopsis
A mother takes her self-destructive daughter to a deserted village in a foreign country (Italy) and locks her in a house in the middle of nowhere. What begins as a mother's desperate attempt to save her child turns into an increasingly miraculous spiritual adventure, restoring deep feelings of life within her. Inspired by the writings of Marcel Proust, the film is not so much a study of a relationship between mother and daughter: it is a poem of two human souls.

Mama je globok razmislek o figuri matere ter domišljen preplet fiktivnega in dokumentarnega. Pripoved gradi na poetičnih vizualnih in zvočnih motivih, s katerimi ustvari samosvoj simbolizem, ter na podobah krajev, matere in hčere, ki jih uokviri s tišino. Ne le, da te odražajo subtilnost avtorjevega pogleda in subtilnost kamere Marka Brdarja, temveč puščajo tudi dovolj praznega prostora, da se gledalec in gledalka v filmu ne počutita ujeta, ampak ga lahko doživljata skozi svoji osebni zgodbi. Mama v svoji sublimaciji bolečine ob avtorjevih filmih Oča ter Deklica in drevo predstavlja trilogijo »lepote in bolečine« in koherentno zaokrožuje celoten avtorjev opus.
Občuteno spajanje naturalizma in poetike nas v tihih podobah popelje na lirično potovanje dveh oseb.
