Over the past decades, the brothers Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne have forged a remarkable body of work that has carried the tradition of social-realist cinema into the 21st Century. Their latest film, YOUNG MOTHERS, is no exception. A remarkable portrait of five young mothers living in a shelter as their social institutions struggle to provide the necessary support, the women at the heart of this film’s story movingly come together to help one another. YOUNG MOTHERS showcases the Dardennes’ deeply humanist vision in the lives of working class people.
