Delicate and heartrending portrait of a young woman and her tumultuous relationship with her mother. While preparing for a career-making performance, a 22-year-old musician is thrown for a loop when her eccentric yet fragile mother makes a reappearance. After a series of short films, Kristina Wagenbauer delivers a funny yet painful debut feature that packs an emotional wallop magnified by Jean-Sébastien Williams’s haunting score.IN THE PRESENCE OF THE TEAM
