Five young mothers living in a shelter strive for a better future for themselves and kids amidst challenging upbringings.
Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne, the Belgian brothers who work together as co-writers and co-directors, began their careers with documentaries. As they have moved to narrative features (all set in their home in Liège province of French-speaking Belgium), they have maintained a modest, intimate, deeply compassionate, and very personal documentary tone: Based on extensive research, filmed with handheld cameras in real locations, and with very minimal music.
