A brisk, warm-hearted French comedy-drama that blends family chaos with a survivor's blunt, irreverent take on life.

How it feels: Warm, light, earnest and melancholic. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Family, healing, parenthood, identity
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
