Fête des Mères

Louise, a former Maths Sup student, is attempting a career change into stand-up comedy. She talks about her love life, her family, and especially her mother. Following a scathing sketch, mother and daughter haven't spoken for almost three years.

Despite their falling out and a lack of inspiration, Louise decides to reappear at her mother's house to attend Mother's Day. She sees this long weekend as an opportunity to gather material for her next show.

It will also be a chance to reconnect with her brothers Gabriel and Ziggy, and to meet their partners, Arthur and Florence. Gabriel, the eldest, always in control, is particularly stressed this year as he is introducing his boyfriend, Arthur, to his family for the first time.

Ziggy, the youngest, has been living with his mother on a temporary basis for almost 5 years. He is accompanied by the eccentric Florence, who has a serious penchant for drinking and is also a very good friend of their mother.

As everyone gets acquainted, the mother's absence first surprises, then worries them.

Somewhere between the comedies of Jaoui/Bacri and the Perche region, Fête des mères is a tragicomedy that pays tribute to siblings, to people who talk without listening and understand each other without speaking.
