Edward (James McArdle), a talented novelist on the cusp of literary success, is juggling his work with the responsibility of caring for his elderly mother, Alma (Fionnula Flanagan). As the excitement of a US book tour builds, he is suddenly faced with an unexpected twist as his three friends decide to take an impromptu Pride getaway to Spain, leaving their mothers in his care.
A warmhearted, hilariously authentic study of a mother-son bond, and a moving exploration of ageing, loss and queer identity, Four Mothers is an intergenerational gem, and a joy of a shared cinema outing.
