There are no current or future screenings planned for this film.

Arnaud Desplechin’s dark family comedy is the remedy for whatever ails you as we enter the holiday season. Never had estranged family members spoken so honestly, never had Christmas been such an epic disaster, as the year the family matriarch had a bone marrow transplant over the holidays. The masochist in you will wish that you too could have been raised by Catherine Deneuve’s Junon, a queen mother worthy of the gods.
