Family Life
Drama
A young woman, Janice, is living with her restrictive and conservative parents, who lead a dull working-class life and consider their daughter to be “misbehaving” whenever she’s trying to find her own way in life.
VIBE
A deeply uncomfortable watch, this film immerses you in a suffocating atmosphere of familial control and psychological distress. It’s a stark, unflinching portrayal of repression that lingers long after the credits roll.
