Presumably you are speaking of this movie here:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0214930/
In which case it is just the mixed up Hollywood version of Christianity.

I havent seen the movie though "mother" veneration came from Ancient Babylon.

The following description taken from the book Babylonian and Assyrian Religion, Professor S. H. Hooke : “Her faithful believers call her by the sweetest names: She is not only goddess and lady but also merciful mother, she who listens to prayers, she who intercedes . . . she who has given life to the universe and to humanity.” Compare that to the following prayer from El Santo Rosario (The Holy Rosary): “We give you thanks, Sovereign Princess, for the favors we receive every day from your beneficent hand; be so kind, Lady, as to have us now and forever under your protection and shelter.”

Who is the subject of this description and the prayer? Many will immediately conclude, “The Virgin Mary.” That answer is only half right. The prayer is offered to Mary. However, as Las Grandes Religiones Ilustradas informs us, the first quotation is a description of Ishtar, the “Lady of Love,” the Babylonian goddess of fertility, love, and war. Sometimes she is presented in images “as a mother suckling her baby boy.”

I'm no help and I have no idea but my opinion is still if it's different than whats written in the Bible it's crap.

Probably the religion called Hollywood

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe they changed to story to make it more sellable.
