Jeunes Mères is the new film by two-time Golden Palm winners Jean-Pierre & Luc Dardenne. In this moving and hopeful mosaic film, the Dardennes show how five young women want to fight for a better life for themselves and their children. Jessica, Perla, Julie, Ariane, and Naïma live in a mother and child home where they receive support as young (expectant) mothers. Five teenagers, each with their own story and problems, but who find support in each other. Fighting for a better future is not always easy, but the mother's home offers protection, warmth, and connection.
“Jeunes Mères is the best film of the year so far and offers exactly what we need these days: light in the darkness” (★★★★★ Humo)
