Mother Tongue
The story of a high-profile relationship between an Academy Award-winning actress and her much-younger partner, who has yet to find his true career path. The actress had a baby when she was very young, a daughter she was forced to give away because she wasn't financially independent and wanted her little girl to have a better life. But now that she's older, she realizes that it's time to find her long-lost daughter, now in her twenties, and hires a detective to find her.
