"Another recent French film that I felt was just OK. It was not bad, but it's nothing to brag about. Everything is pretty mediocre. Sure, it's a lovey and interesting story about Midwife who is contacted by her father's mistress 30 years after the relationship because she going through cancer and wanted to see her and her father again, but as it turns out the father is dead leaving the midwife to be the only thing close to a family the mistress has, and most of the movie is about if the midwife feels the same way. it was mostly drama with a few funny moments but nothing really..."
💡 Did You Know?
The birthing scenes were real. Catherine Frot took training to become a midwife and actually delivered five babies on camera. Because of this, while the action is set in the Paris region, the birthing scenes were filmed in Belgium as French law prohibits the filming of babies younger than 3 months old.
