Film Review: Mother Teresa Runs Her Congregation Like a General in 'Mother'
The film 'Mother,' directed by Teona Strugar Mitevska and starring Noomi Rapace, depicts a week in the life of Mother Teresa in Calcutta in 1948. Portrayed as ambitious and strict, Teresa manages her congregation like an army general while awaiting Vatican approval to found her own order. The narrative highlights her rigid stance against contraception and abortion, illustrated when she reacts harshly to Sister Agnieszka’s secret pregnancy. The review suggests the film portrays Teresa as a complex figure who may suffer from hallucinations and intense emotional turmoil.
