This is a story of Londoners connected by family, friends and a certain therapist who brings all her patients’ problems back to their mothers.

Nominated for the Golden Hitchcock Award, Mothers & Daughters was described as the “Highlight of Montreal (World Festival)” by Indie Wire. “Good Performance, pacing and sharp script” declared Variety. "Bourgeois comedy at its best. Disturbing and utterly hilarious" announced RAINDANCE, “Jean Boht gives a powerful performance… at times almost too painful to watch”, exclaimed THE DAILY MAIL.

Le deuxième film de la série autobiographique de Terence Davies (avec "Trilogy" et "The Long Day Closes") est une vision impressionniste d'une famille ouvrière dans le Liverpool des années 1940 et 1950, basée sur la propre famille du réalisateur.
