TWO WOMEN focuses on struggling mothers grappling with unfulfilled expectations and societal pressures when one's unexpected affair sparks a reevaluation of their lives and priorities. Violette and Florence no longer understand what is happening to them. Respectively, on maternity leave and off work, one is on edge, the other no longer feels anything. The neighbours are both filled with a feeling of failure: despite their careers and families, they are not happy. Florence’s first infidelity with is a revelation. In a context where having fun is very low on the list of priorities, sleeping with a delivery guy is perhaps downright revolutionary. For Violette and Florence, it will be the breath of fresh air they were hoping for. From acclaimed Quebec filmmaker Chloé Robichaud (HERD LEADER, SARAH PREFERS TO RUN), the fun and sexy alternative rom-com was a stand-out at Sundance 2025.
