Winner of the Special Jury Prize at Sundance, TWO WOMEN is an irrepressible comedy about two mothers who refuse to settle for stagnant lives, and instead pursue the joy they need to feel alive and fulfilled.

When neighbors Violette (Laurence Leboeuf) and Florence (Karine Gonthier-Hyndman) bond over the ennui of parenthood, they realize that the solution to reviving their joie de vivre may be in listening to their libidos. As the two start finding sex in unexpected places, they examine the larger unfulfilled needs that brought them to their current moment, and choose to pursue a life of joy over compromise.

Director Chloé Robichaud captures the Montreal winter in sumptuous 35mm film; Screenwriter Catherine Léger has adapted her own stage play, itself an update of the 1970 Quebecoise classic Two Women in Gold. Sophie Nélisse, Juliette Gariépy, Mani Soleymanlou and Félix Moati complete a stellar ensemble cast.

Wonderfully layered, empathetic, sexy and fun, TWO WOMEN urges us to consider that life is not a straight line, and to remember that there are infinite kinds of pleasure we can experience together if we simply allow ourselves to give in.
