Each week 'Wrocław Uncut' will be bringing you weekly previews of what's on at the cinema in English.
Movie Of The Week:
Mommy
This week's featured movie is Mommy, which is being heralded as 25-year-old Canadian film-maker Xavier Dolan's best yet.
In this French language film we are introduced to Diane, a widowed single mum, and Steve, her restless and thuggish son. Steve has a host of challenging behavioral problems including ADHD, which makes Diane's job of raising him all the more difficult. Help soon comes their way in the shape of their neighbour however, whose character strikes a cord with Steve in a way no one could have imagined.
