“Mom, Are You There?” is a raw, poignant exploration of a young woman’s struggle with identity, shame, and the familial bonds that shape her world. Set between her Hollywood and Pasadena homes, comedian Mary Basmadjian tells a deeply personal story of a chubby Armenian girl, raised in an immigrant household filled with the warmth and love of her grandparents, yet shadowed by the neglect and estrangement of her young mother. Growing up in a chaotic environment, Mary finds solace in a tight-knit group of destructive friends—Mary Jane, Edie, and Shame—who lead her through her most formative years, offering comfort in the form of rebellion and escapism.
