If you are just about to take a crucial step towards becoming an adult, but your own parent takes a step in the other direction and falls into a childlike behavior needing fulltime support - do you pause your own life then? Warm and humorous, this impressive feature film debut addresses relatable issues of family formation, aging and responsibility, making it the audience choice at several European festivals this year. Thirty something Alex and Noémie want to have children, but the plans are shattered when Alex's mother Suzanne starts spending money recklessly, visiting neighbors at night and pasting together a fake driver's license. Impressive ensemble of actors that with charm and finesse delivers an equally moving and entertaining film.
