I have a high regard for the Belgian Lubna Azabal after having seen her previous films. Here she plays a rather unremarkable role in which she cannot fully use her qualities. The focus is also more on Bruni-Tedeschi who, as a single mother of a teenager, has a very hard time making ends meet financially. She is also completely mentally exhausted and makes a number of strange decisions. It does not benefit the relationship with her otherwise well-behaved son.
The Parisian suburbs are just bleak and unstimulating. You are confronted daily with your own failures. What a Christmas present she gives her son!
Not entirely convinced in terms of content. I was quite into the film and sympathized with the mother, but the further course of events is presented in a very simplistic manner. A film that leaves too little of its mark to really catch on.

The film deserves praise for the performances, primarily that of Valérie Bruni Tedeschi, whom I hadn't seen at work in years. Now perfectly suited for such a role in a film that carries a degree of absurdity—even more so than was necessary to describe the unbalanced protagonist.
Félix Lefebvre and certainly Lubana Azabal do not look out of place either.
The ups and downs in Nicole's mood are not of a nature to really draw you into the story.
Still a film that hits the middle ground.
