Ama is a Spanish film that explores the difficulties faced by a single mother and her daughter as they are forced to leave their home and live on the streets. The story is set in Madrid, where Pepa (played by Tamara Casellas) and her daughter Leila (played by Zoe Arnao) are evicted from their apartment after failing to keep up with the rent.
With no support network and little resources, mother and daughter must rely on each other as they struggle to find a new place to call home. Along the way, they encounter a cast of colorful characters and face a range of challenges, from hunger and exhaustion to harassment and violence.
Despite the hardships they face, Pepa remains determined to provide a better life for her daughter. She takes on odd jobs and tries to save enough money to secure a new home. Meanwhile, Leila tries to make sense of their situation and cope with the fear and instability that come with being homeless.
Ama tackles important social issues such as poverty, homelessness, and the struggles faced by single mothers. It offers a poignant and powerful portrait of the resilience and strength of maternal love, as well as the devastating impact of social inequality and economic precarity.
