NRSynopsis
Mary and Martha (2013) is a drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Phillip Noyce from a screenplay by Richard Curtis (Love Actually, Bridget Jones's Diary). Hilary Swank plays Mary Morgan, a wealthy American whose teenage son dies of malaria in Mozambique; Brenda Blethyn is Martha O'Connell, a British woman who loses her son the same way — a young volunteer teacher who gave his net to a pupil, not knowing adults could also fall ill.
Grief brings them together in southern Africa. Martha stays to work with a local aid organisation; Mary flies to Washington and starts lobbying Congress for a bigger commitment to malaria prevention. The film ends with both women testifying before a Senate health committee — not as career advocates, just as two mothers who have nothing left to lose. Sam Claflin, Frank Grillo and James Woods round out the cast. Stream Mary and Martha (2013) on iFILM.
