What a wonderful film.
The interplay of the two women is a treat to watch.
Watching the film was like breathing in fresh air, serene with bouts of controlled mania and amusement.
Catherine Frot, at the centre of the film, experiences sheer joy through her work as a midwife; the rest of her life is mostly empty.
After meeting up with Catherine Deneuve, her late father's mistress, after a thirty year break, we see her life changing as she slowly and inevitably falls in love with her new mother figure.
Enjoyed watching this very much, a real unexpected treat.
