- Synopsis:
Hubert Minel doesn't love his mother. The seventeen-year-old regards her with haughty contempt, and sees only her tacky sweaters, kitsch decorations and the breadcrumbs that get stuck on the corners of her lips when she munches. In addition to these irritating surface details, there are also the cherished family mechanisms of manipulation and guilt. Confused by a love/hate relationship which obsesses him more and more each day, and desperate to escape the suffocating atmosphere of his mother's working-class, suburban home, Hubert drifts through the mysteries of an adolescence both marginal and typical: artistic discoveries, illicit experiences, the opening-up to friendship, sex, and ostracism. - Actors:
