Check out the trailer for 20-year-old Quebec filmmaker Xavier Dolan's J'ai tué ma mère (I Killed My Mother), a semi-autobiographical story about a 16-year-old boy, Hubert Minel (Xavier Dolan), in the process of discovering his gay sexuality while constantly being at odds with his mother (Anne Dorval).
Brilliant.
At this year's Cannes Director's Showcase sidebar, J'ai tué ma mère won the Art Cinema Award given by an international jury of independent cinema programmers, the SACD Prize for best French-language film, and the Regards Jeunes 2009 Prize given to a first film by a jury of young cinephiles.
Félicitations M. Dolan!
