This movie has Padmé and her handmaidens and also Shmi, Anakins mother. Padmé talks to both her handmaidens and Shmi.

All conversations between women are carried out in a group with men present and also participating in them. But Padme's exchanges with other females are not focused on men or romance, so it just barely passes the test.
