Les Fantômes des Trois Madeleine

On a road trip through French Canada, three generations of women - all named Madeleine - get to know one another as a host of familial and societal themes unfold, full of poetry and hope. The grandmother, Mado, meets the daughter whom she had given up for adoption years earlier, unleashing a passionate recollection of her own youth and a long-lost love. The daughter, Marie-Madeleine, is a thoroughly modern and strong-minded woman; the encounter with her mother allows her to face unacknowledged fears and embrace new possibilities.
