Madly in Life

Belgium 2020 | 87 minutes | French | Hebrew subtitles

Alex and Noémie are in love. They want to have children. But then his mother, a proud and dynamic woman, begins to forget things, acts silly, and demands their sole attention. Her deterioration changes all their plans. Usually, family crises of this kind translate into somewhat depressing cinematic dramas, but this is not the case in the work before us. Madly in Life is a clever, enjoyable, and stirring film, full of humor and moments of great humanity. The sophisticated cinematic language - that moves between cinematic techniques – contributes to the film’s vast appeal.
