Synopsis

Coming to Luna Leederville and the Windsor.

In this warm and delightful comedy centred by the irrepressible French icon Catherine Deneuve (Belle de JourThe Umbrellas of Cherbourg8 Women), three generations of women find commonality in their radically different ways of living.

Charlie, a student, returns to the family farm in Virginia to help her ailing mother Laura (Oscar nominee Andrea Riseborough). They have contrasting visions of life: Charlie studies finance while Laura manages a chicken farm. When Laura's estranged mother Solange (Deneuve), an eccentric French feminist who left America when her daughter was still a child, suddenly arrives at the farm, these three women who seem to have nothing in common are forced to learn to live peacefully together.

The grande dame of French cinema, Deneuve brings a warm and playful anarchy to her role as the proverbial cat amongst the pigeons. Alongside Riseborough and Morgan Saylor, we watch as these three generations of women navigate the moving and amusing tragicomedy of life.
