Synopsis
Lullaby (Cinco lobitos, 2022) is a Spanish drama you can watch online on iFILM, following a first-time mother who quietly realizes she's in over her head.
When her partner leaves for weeks of work, Amaia takes her newborn back to her parents' home in a small fishing town on the Basque coast. Living with her mother and father again, she slips back into being a daughter at the exact moment she's learning to be a mom. Laia Costa carries all of it in small gestures — exhaustion, tenderness, guilt.
Alauda Ruiz de Azúa's debut feature won at the Goya Awards and treats motherhood without sentiment or melodrama, letting silence do the work. It lands hardest for anyone who has raised a child or cared for aging parents. Susi Sánchez and Ramón Barea ground the family with a warmth you recognize. Stream Lullaby online on iFILM.
