As the producer has explained, the history from The Room Next Door is that of a “very imperfect” mother and a “resentful” daughter separated by a great misunderstanding. Between them, another woman, Ingrid (Julianne Moore), a friend of her mother, is the repository of both of their pain and bitterness.
Martha, the mother (played by Tilda Swinton), is a war reporter and Ingrid is an autofiction novelist. “The film talks about the limitless cruelty of wars, about the very different ways in which the two writers approach and write about reality, it talks about death, friendship and sexual pleasure as the best allies to fight against the horror,” they have pointed out from El Deseo.
In addition, the producer has pointed out that this new film also talks about “the sweet awakening with the chirping of birds”, in a house built in the middle of a nature reserve in New England, where the two friends live.an extreme situation and strangely sweet.”
