Jennifer Lawrence, Javier Bardem, Ed Harris, and Michelle Pfeiffer star in Darren Aronofsky's (Black Swan, Requiem for a Dream) highly anticipated psychological thriller about a couple threatened by the arrival of uninvited guests to their tranquil home.

A young woman (Lawrence) busies herself in a vast, unfamiliar house, trying to renovate it into submission. Her new, older husband (Bardem) is a brilliant author, acclaimed for his insight into humanity and his mastery of language. They love each other deeply, so why are their days so fraught with tension? Why do these newlyweds seem about to tear each other apart? This relationship is clearly teetering on a knife's edge. Then the guests show up. Plunged into the heart of this fracturing relationship, this particular conflict is about to take on far bigger implications. Let's just say it escalates... And then some.

Fans of Aronofsky will know he’s a master of winding dramatic intensity up to shattering effect. But this is new territory, even for him. Dazzling, shocking, and strangely satisfying, Mother! is a taboo-melting survey of female innocence smashed against male ego - it will test your mettle throughout.
