Filmmaker Martin Provost (Violette, Séraphine) wrote his funny and moving new film specifically for stars Catherine Frot and Catherine Deneuve. Frot is Claire, a talented but tightly wound midwife and single mother, whose small maternity clinic is about to be overtaken by a “baby factory.” Béatrice (Deneuve) is the estranged, free-spirited but broken-down mistress of Claire’s deceased father. When Béatrice returns to Claire’s life after decades away, Claire doesn’t want any part of her. Although polar opposites in every way, the two women will come to rely on each other to cope with the unusual circumstances that bring them together. With Olivier Gourmet, Quentin Dolmaire. In French with English subtitles. Writer/Director: Martin Provost. (France 2017) 117 min.
