Growing up with a family matriarch
Growing up with a family matriarch
For her 70th birthday, three daughters and three grandchildren come together to celebrate the woman at the centre of their family. There are strong opinions, interrupted birthday messages, arguments over food and plenty of teasing. Beneath the chaos is a film about mothers and daughters, ageing, loss, connection and the different ways families show they care for one another.
