53 minutes of messy love, messy lives, and a director who couldn't kill her darlings.
In this short and uneven film about a single mother and her brood, the difficulties and obstacles involved in loving someone are presented with sympathy and fine sentiment, yet the film is slow in parts and although short, could have been advantageously edited to a still briefer length.
Acting
Michèle Moretti anchors the chaos with weary, lived-in grace.
Production
Micro-budget Paris that feels genuinely cramped, not quaint.
Director
Carole Giacobbi
