WATCH THE TRAILER!
(BANDE ANNONCE)
In an idyllic Brussels neighborhood in the early 1960s, it is Céline’s (Anne Coesens) birthday, and Alice (Veerle Baetens) has organized the perfect party! Not only are the two women best friends, they also live in attached homes, their husbands are friends, and so are their children, Maxime and Théo. This perfect suburban harmony is shattered when tragedy suddenly strikes, leading them to question the relationships they once held so dear. As suspicion, guilt, and resentment engulf their intertwined lives, the housewives truly turn desperate.
This gripping psychological thriller with a stunning retro look is as twisted as Hitchcock and as oppressive as Chabrol. It will keep you wondering till the end.
Mothers’ Instinct is Belgian director Olivier Masset-Depasse’s second feature.
