Yes, this is a boring movie; but it is not meant to be an action movie. Dramatic movies do not have to have beautiful people. Movies about lesbians do NOT have to have hot naked sex all over the place. This was a movie about three women; a middle aged woman who is basically being manipulated by an older, scared woman and a younger needy one. Some might say: go for the young beautiful girl; others – the more mature interesting one. You are given the chance to follow her and try to decipher the decisions she makes. It could have been a much more interesting movie; but take it for what it is. Everyday life is not always interesting; this is just a study in real life.

French-language cinema, whether in France, Québec, or other Francophone regions, explores cultural identity, social change, and the tension between the individual and society. French cinema is not only celebrated for its intellectual experimentation and auteur traditions, but also its success in mainstream comedy, romance, and commercial entertainment. In Québec, films often focus on questions of language, belonging, and community within a distinct cultural landscape.
