synopsis
Six American women travel to an unnamed South American country to adopt babies. According to local law, the women are forced to establish residency and live among the native people. The women include: a working-class Southerner who is a member of Alcoholics Anonymous; a neurotic Jewish New Yorker; a prep school trust-fund girl; a bitter Midwesterner; a financially strapped Bostonian, and an athletic blonde.

Six women establish residence in a hotel in Latin America in order to adopt a baby. Indie legend John Sayles (Lone Star, Sunshine State) gathers a fine cast (Maggie Gyllenhaal, Marcia Gay Harden, Daryl Hannah, Susan Lynch, Lili Taylor, Mary Steenburgen) and kicks around potent ideas about child trafficking. But the film feels more like a thesis than vivid drama.
