Top 5 Heartwarming Movies Celebrating the Ups and Downs of Motherhood
Mothers hold a unique and cherished place in our lives. Their stories, filled with love, sacrifice, and resilience, are truly cinematic. Just in time for Mother’s Day, we’ve partnered with the video service VOKA to bring you a diverse selection of films about and for mothers that you can enjoy together.
Bridesmaids (2016)
Meet a group of charming heroines navigating family drama in the lead-up to Mother’s Day. From fitness fiascos to shopping sprees, dealing with quirky grandparents, mischievous kids, jealous friends, and pesky exes—these are the ingredients of true happiness for women (and men, if you’re a single dad). No matter where life takes you, finding true love is what counts. The key is to never give up! After all, fate is like a vast supermarket, not a small convenience store.
Erin Brockovich (2000)
This is the inspiring true story of an extraordinary woman. For people like Erin, career prospects seem bleak—just modest work in a small law firm. But for a self-assured, outspoken beauty and mother of three who has faced life’s hardships, one opportunity is all it takes to turn her destiny around.
Mamma Mia! (2008)
Sophie, a young bride-to-be, dreams of the perfect wedding. She wants her father to walk her down the aisle, but there’s a catch—she doesn’t know who he is. Her mother, Donna, has never spoken about him. Sophie discovers her mother’s diary, which mentions three potential fathers. She decides to invite all three! The plot thickens when Donna finds out about Sophie’s plan.
Parallel Mothers (2021)
In a delivery room, two women from different walks of life meet: Janis, a 40-year-old photographer, and young Ana. Both give birth to daughters, but their paths diverge after leaving the hospital. Janis struggles to balance work and motherhood, while Ana devotes herself entirely to her child. Unbeknownst to them, their fates are intertwined in an extraordinary way.
Moms’ Night Out (2014)
A mother of three realizes she’s stretched too thin and desperately needs a break. She rallies her friends, who are equally overwhelmed with kids and chores, to plan a full day off for some much-needed relaxation.
