Jessica, Perla, Julie, Ariane and Naïma are housed in a shelter for young mothers. Five teenagers hoping for a better life for themselves and their babies. Jeunes Mères is the new film from two-time Golden Palm winners Jean-Pierre & Luc Dardenne.
★★★★★ ‘outstanding return to form for the Dardenne brothers’ The Guardian
Teenagers Ariane, Jessica, Julie, Naïma and Perla are five very different girls, but they have one important thing in common: they are all underage, single mothers. They now live in a special shelter for young mothers and their children, where they find protection and warmth, but most of all closeness; they support each other through thick and thin.
