Kat resists, knowing that it will end the bohemian lifestyle that she's always envisioned with Eva. When Kat's best friend, Roger (David Verdaguer), drops in from Barcelona, the three of them toy around with the idea of creating a baby together. Kat sees no other way out but to say yes. As the three begin to look forward as one family, their differing expectations of intimacy and responsibility put a heavy strain on their relationship and threatens to rip the three apart.

Not so in Carlos Marques-Marcet's loose, observant Anchor and Hope. Nov 14, 2018 | Full Review… Alan Scherstuhl L.A. Weekly Top Critic There's a potentially smart and sexy lesbian dramedy at the heart of "Anchor and Hope" that gets lost amid idiosyncratic filmmaking and a lack of narrative discipline. Nov 14, 2018 | Full Review… Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times Top Critic It's a thoughtful, honest and touching work, especially for women who love women, and also love canals. Sep 28, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Leslie Felperin Top Critic A magnetic journey that reconfirms that cinema is nothing more than a reflection of real life. [Full Review in Spanish] Aug 5, 2019 | Full Review… Víctor López G. Don't get sold into the light-hearted, bittersweet, sugar-coated casing of this film. David Verdaguer's scene-stealing performance simply can't save Anchor and Hope from its archaic representation of women. Who let this be made? Feb 21, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review… Laura Davis One Room With A View Where Anchor and Hope badly misfires is in the assumptions it makes about what women want, and how women get it.
