Straight from the official competition of the Berlin Film Festival comes the debut directorial of the excellent screenwriter Rebecca Lenkiewicz who wrote the Oscar winning screenplay for \u201cIda\u201d and the lesbian drama \u201cDisobedience\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cHot Milk\u201d is a story of a mother and daughter unfolding during a hot Spanish summer and is based on the critically acclaimed novel by Deborah Levy. Sofia (Emma Mackey, star of \u201cSex Education\u201d) is taking care of her demanding mother Rose (veteran actress Fiona Shaw) who is wheelchair bound.
