Synopsis

edit

How My Mother Gave Birth to Me During Her Menopause is about Jean-Charles (Paul Ahmarani), a 30-year-old working on his thesis about men's role in a post-feminist world, who lives with his domineering mother (Micheline Lanctôt) and sister (Sylvie Moreau), both of whom are sleeping with the gardener (Patrick Huard). To further complicate matters, Jean-Charles is having an affair with his shrink (Anne-Marie Cadieux) who reports back to his mother.
