Summary

While Xavier Dolan’s fifth film opens with a title card situating us in “a fictional Canada,” the heartbreaking array of emotions he depicts is very real. The story follows a feisty widowed single mom (Dorval) who unexpectedly finds herself alone as she tries to care for her unpredictable and emotionally volatile 15-year-old son (Pilon). Shot in an Instagram-like 1:1 square aspect ratio, Mommy is simultaneously outrageous and brilliant.

Bursting with life, innovative visuals and a best-of soundtrack, Mommy is a critically acclaimed award-winner, garnering eight Canadian Screen Awards including Best Motion Picture, and the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival.

Cast Anne Dorval, Antoine Olivier Pilon, Suzanne Clément, Patrick Huard
