American actress and filmmaker Jodie Foster, cited as one of the best actresses of her generation is back to direction with Netflix&#39; series &quot;Black Mirror&quot;.&nbsp;

She has worked on an episode of the digital series titled &quot;ArkAngel&quot; where she digs deep into&nbsp;mother-daughter dynamics to tell the story of a mom anxious about her girl -- which turns her into a sophisticated surveillance tool.

A mother of two boys in real life, Jodie while discussing her directorial move says,&nbsp;&ldquo;When you&rsquo;re raising a man, you&rsquo;re just so in awe at how different they are&quot; and adds, &ldquo;It&rsquo;s just so amazing to you how different they are in every way &mdash; not just the physical ways, but how they think. It&rsquo;s very easy to understand that they are separate from you. It&rsquo;s not so easy, I think, with female children.&rdquo;

The episode directed by Jodie&nbsp;is&nbsp;part of&nbsp;season four of writer Charlie Brooker&rsquo;s anthology series that according to its synopsis &#39;revolves around a group of people&#39;s personal lives and how technology manipulates their behaviour&#39;.

In the &quot;Black Mirror&quot;&nbsp;episode, one can see star&nbsp;Rosemarie DeWitt, whose credits include &ldquo;La La Land&rdquo; and &ldquo;Mad Men&quot; play the role of the mother. She has&nbsp;two young daughters in the episode on whom she eavesdrops so as to keep them safe as they grow into a woman with time.&nbsp;

Speaking about her role and Jodie&#39;s direction, Rosemarie says,&nbsp;&ldquo;I sometimes felt Jodie was really rooting for the daughter and I was really rooting for myself. So we had this combustible thing. It&rsquo;s a really sticky relationship &mdash; mothers and daughters.&rdquo;

Jodie debuted as a director with &ldquo;Little Man Tate&rdquo; in 1991 which was about a single mom raising a son.

In this project too, Jodie will be seen directing a story about a single mom but raising a daughter instead of a son.&nbsp;

The actress famous for her iconic roles in &ldquo;The Silence of the Lambs,&rdquo; &ldquo;Inside Man&rdquo; and &ldquo;The Accused,&rdquo; said she was attracted to Netflix after finding Hollywood really only interested in big franchise films.
