Alicia Vikander Stars in New Motherhood Drama

Rachel Rose, an internationally acclaimed artist, makes her feature directorial debut with "The Last Day." The film stars Oscar winner Alicia Vikander alongside Wagner Moura and Victoria Pedretti. It draws inspiration from Virginia Woolf's "Mrs. Dalloway" to explore the complexities of motherhood.

The narrative unfolds over a single summer day in New York, focusing on two mothers. One, a writer, grapples with creative blocks and unprocessed grief as her daughter approaches adolescence. An unexpected encounter with a nurse experiencing a postpartum crisis challenges her to reconsider her life and sense of self.

Currently in post-production, "The Last Day" is produced by Academy Award nominees Christine Vachon and Pamela Koffler for Killer Films. Eric Yue served as director of photography, and Taylor Levy edited the film. WestEnd Films is introducing "The Last Day" to international buyers at the European Film Market, highlighting its focus on female-driven stories.
