Oh! The French title is the idiomatic term for the English rendering.
Catherine Frot is wonderful in the title role as a woman dealing with the potential collapse of her career, an unambitious son with a pregnant girlfriend, her late father's self-centered longtime mistress (
Catherine Deneuve, as good as she's ever been), and a cultured, sexy truck driver.

You know how I feel about religion in general, and about religion that interferes with love in particular. So Menashe (
Menashe Lustig), whose marriage was arranged and loveless, and who would otherwise would be better off widowed, can't keep his son unless he remarries (and even then, apparently his new wife won't be able to touch the first wife's offspring). A fascinating slice of a life I want no part of.
