When the doctor tells him that his mother, in her nineties, does not have long left, Sylvain Biegeleisen visits her everyday. Against all the odds, the venerable lady "decides" to hang around for a while - The director chronicles this uncertain and mysterious time in this luminous film on tenderness as a possible source of youth and full of an innocence regained every day.

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
