Nominated for the Golden Hitchcock Award, Mothers & Daughters was described as the “Highlight of Montreal (World Festival)” by Indie Wire. “Good Performance, pacing and sharp script” declared Variety. "Bourgeois comedy at its best. Disturbing and utterly hilarious" announced RAINDANCE, “Jean Boht gives a powerful performance… at times almost too painful to watch”, exclaimed THE DAILY MAIL. ==Plot== Lives start to unravel during an eventful dinner party when the group are forced to face their issues head on. For one couple, vicar Dan (David Conolly) and his wife Emma (Joanna Pecover) are faced with the revelation that one of them has been having an affair with the evening’s hostess Kate (Miranda Hart). Worse of all she has to in turn face her mother (Joan Blackham) who drops in to “help-out”. Drug fueled sex, lustful longings and how to make cous-cous… are there some things a girl shouldn't share with her mother? Even the therapist (Alix Longman) has to face her own maternal misgivings as she returns home to deal with the aftermath of her own mother’s descent into Alzheimer’s - a startling performance by Jean Boht as Mary. Nina (Caroline Burns Cooke) explores the painful reality of having to care for a sick mother who, when she was well, appeared not to care for either Nina or her sister. A funny, honest and often tender look at the complicated relationships that create the unique bond between Mothers & Daughters. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mothers & Daughters (film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
