Event information

Can Ariane trust her alcoholic mother and abusive partner with her new baby? Just one of the questions tackled by the Belgian Dardenne brothers as they extend their line of naturalistic dramas with simultaneous stories about five teenage pregnancies. Winning Best Screenplay at Cannes 2025, their script, based on conversations with real young girls and set in a maternal support home in Liège (the city is the setting of many of the Dardenne brothers’ films), elicits brilliant performances from amateur actors who opt for resilience and hope as they struggle with adoption, poverty, violence and addiction, in their bid for the light at the end of the tunnel.
