Fullplot:

What would you do if someone you loved sat down with you one night and calmly told you that they were going to end their life before morning? This is Thelma Cates' dilemma. Her daughter, Jessie, has had it. A middle-aged epileptic unable to hold a job or drive with a failed marriage and a drug-addicted runaway son on the wrong side of the law, Jessie can find no reason to go on living. Adapted from the play by Marsha Norman, "'night, Mother" is the story of a parent's worst nightmare. How can Thelma convince her daughter that life is worth living if she can't feel her pain? How can she end her daughter's embrace of death before morning?

Comments:

Inventore perspiciatis quod fugiat ipsa itaque at magni. Magnam quis beatae eos cumque expedita ut possimus. Nisi impedit itaque laborum sint necessitatibus. Suscipit laudantium nemo atque nesciunt.
