Moscow Film Society: Mommy

Wednesday, November 20 at 7 PM

“Mommy is a shockingly honest, nerve-wracking and dazzling piece of cinema. If this doesn’t rattle your soul, you don’t have one.”
— Tom Long, Detroit News

Moscow Film Society presents MOMMY as part of their Queer Behind the Camera series, co-programmed by Kari Lovin! A widowed single mother, raising her violent son alone, finds new hope when a mysterious neighbor inserts herself into their household. As challenging as it is rewarding, Mommy finds writer-director Xavier Dolan taking another impressive step forward with a film that is bursting with so much energy that it immerses the viewer in the chaotic yet deeply emotional landscape of its characters’ lives, making every moment feel raw and intensely real. French with English subtitles.

Rated: R | 2 hr 19 min | Tickets: $8 Adult / Film Pass
