Just Like Our Parents

Rosa, the 37-year-old protagonist of Brazilian drama Just Like Our Parents (Como Nossos Pais), is caught between her aging mother, who has just revealed a secret that has thrown her daughter’s whole existence into disarray, and her life at home with her oft-absent and potentially cheating husband and two preteen daughters. Expected to simultaneously be daughter, mother and wife to her family members, and general caretaker of everyone and everything, Rosa struggles to find any time for herself and to figure out what she really thinks and wants.
