Blandine Lenoir's feel-good charmer tells the story of fifty-year old Aurore as she tries to reassert herself in a society that rather she goes unnoticed.
Separated from her husband, her two girls almost fully grown, and experiencing daily hot flushes, Aurore (Agnès Jaoui) has reached a crossroads in her life. In the space of a week, she loses her job, finds out she's going to be a grandmother and bumps into Totoche (Thibault de Montalembert), her first love.
While society is trying to push her to the sidelines, this unexpected blast from the past pushes her to resist a life of fading into the background.
Blandine Lenoir's film is a joyous and warm-hearted observation on motherhood, friendship, solidarity, and proves it's never too late to put your heart on the line.
Blandine Lenoir joins us post-film for a ScreenTalk.
