Mommy's Boys
Mors drenge
Synopsis
Adrian Hughes digs into his mother's dramatic life, from the jetset Copenhagen of the 1950's to loneliness and alcoholism, but a bitter farewell letter opens new wounds. In Jesper Dalgaard's staged documentary we encounter tragic female destinies, affluent and absent fathers, while actors such as Birthe Neumann, Asta August and Jakob Cedergren bring the past to life in this breathtaking experiment. With equal parts humour and pain, the film shows that it's never too late to try to understand your family.
