maybe every child secretly wishes they could hug their parent when they were still small

"Tu n'a pas inventé ma tristesse"

"Petite maman" is the cinematic version of a warm hug, but where both individuals are flooded with nostalgia. It's the kind of raw emotion & nostalgia that makes you gulp the knot in your throat.
The film made me spiritually connected to the daughter I may or may not have in the future. I wish we could all experience what Nelly experienced in her little journey. I too would want to see my own Marion when she was a little girl.
Céline Sciamma, you are one hell of a movie director. This is the 2nd movie I watch from hers and both of them are on my top 4. I love her work sm.

On a final note, I wish I could hug my mom right now but it's 1 a.m., exactly the day before Christmas eve, and everyone's asleep. Looks like imma have to postpone the hug for tomorrow :)

A very sweet story around grief and the relationship between parent and child or perhaps the distance that naturally can come with it. Having seen Aftersun recently it feels like they are two sides of the same coin in some ways, but this was a lot less upsetting and hopeful. The runtime as well is perfect, it didn’t need more time and I think it served the fleeting essence of the films story. Sciamma delivers yet again!

Pre svega, film je neverovatno prelep vizuelno, ekstra poeni samo za to.

Priča je u 73 minuta spakovana jako lepo, sporija radnja ali predivni kadrovi su tu da upotpune utisak.

La idea de que idealizamos a nuestras madres , porque no conocemos una vida sin ellas , desde el momento en que nacemos están para nosotros , y no conocemos la faceta de nuestras madres sin una responsabilidad como el tener un hijo , esa conexión que se tiene cuando rompes esa barrera y entiendes que tú madre en algún momento estuvo en tu posición , lo cercanos  que podemos ser al descubrir la vida de nuestras mamás , el saber por lo que ha pasado y aún así busca alegrarnos los días , sin duda es una película que hace que valoremos más a las madres que tenemos
