Pierre is a successful 33-year-old florist whose life takes a turn when his mother, Judith, shows up after two years without seeing each other. Judith is whimsical, excessive, and suffers from bipolar disorder; she has escaped from her clinic. While Pierre's only thought is to bring her back urgently and resume his normal life, nothing goes as planned. Their unexpected reunion--both explosive, funny, and moving--will transform Pierre and Judith forever.
It’s a brilliant work which takes a respectful approach to bringing a "difficult" subject into a mainstream cinema world, which owes a lot to the somewhat exceptional performances of Agnès Jaoui and William Lebghil, and which speaks to all of us. Fabien Lemercier/CineEuropa
