Madonna Verde (2011)

Other name: マドンナ・ヴェルデ

Description:

In Madonna Verde, the story continues to explore the sensitive issue of surrogate pregnancy. Dr. Rie Sonezaki, known as the "Cool Witch" in her obstetrics department, faces a profound personal challenge. Having lost her uterus due to illness, Rie and her husband long for a child. In a highly unusual and secretive arrangement, Rie asks her own mother, Midori, to act as the surrogate mother for their baby.

Their delicate plan is jeopardized when Maruyama Kyozo, who is deeply enamored with Midori, uncovers their secret. The situation intensifies dramatically when an anonymous accusatory letter is sent to Professor Hirotaro Honda at Rie's university hospital. Under immense pressure and fearing exposure, Rie and Midori are forced into a desperate deception, pretending that the child Midori is carrying is actually her own. This charade pushes the boundaries of family, ethics, and secrecy to their breaking point.
