Double Mommy is a 2016 drama film that tells the story of a young woman named Ryan who struggles to make ends meet while taking care of her six-year-old daughter, Emma. To add to her woes, Ryan finds out that she is pregnant again, and the father of the child, Jake, is not interested in being a part of their lives. In an attempt to make some quick cash, Ryan agrees to be a surrogate mother for a wealthy couple, Mark and Lisa, who have been trying to have a child of their own for years. Ryan sees this as an opportunity to not only provide for her children but also to start afresh with her life.

As Ryan goes through the surrogacy process, she soon finds herself being pulled in two different directions - her original family and her surrogate family. She becomes attached to the baby she is carrying, but she is also conscious of the financial benefits that come with this surrogacy.

As the due date approaches, Ryan's life takes a turn for the worse. Her daughter, Emma, is diagnosed with leukemia, and Ryan is forced to choose between her surrogate family and her biological family.

Throughout Double Mommy, the audience gets to see the difficulties and challenges that come with surrogacy, and how it impacts everyone involved. The movie raises ethical and moral questions, such as the effects of surrogacy on the emotional wellbeing of a surrogate mother, the rights of the baby, and the connections that are made between the surrogate mother and the family.

Morgan Obenreder shines in the role of Ryan, a hardworking single mother who is determined to do whatever it takes to provide for her children. Her acting is natural and believable, making the audience sympathize with her character's struggles. Mark Grossman and Bruce Boxleitner also give convincing performances as the couple that hires Ryan as their surrogate.

The direction and cinematography of the film are noteworthy. The movie is filmed in a simple style that allows the actors' performances to take centre stage. The emotional scenes in the movie are intense and moving, and the music complements the overall tone of the film.
