All they need is an image of Jean-Louis’ mother’s vagina to break the curse - or whatever it is.
His wife, Valérie (Karin Viard), pulls him to a spiritual teacher who knows the solution.
The problem is that Jean-Louis’ heart has stopped beating, and there is no logical explanation for why, despite his lack of a pulse, he looks to be alive and healthy. In Laurent Lafitte’s zippy feature directing debut, “Dear Mother,” Jean-Louis (Lafitte) is on a mission to find the source of his existence - or “the origin of the world,” to borrow from the film’s French title, “L’Origine du Monde,” an explicit reference to 19th-century artist Gustave Courbet’s painting of, uh, female anatomy. Let’s take a look at some of the film’s important aspects ahead of its release.

With upcoming releases such as the British black comedy After Life Season 3, the Indian thriller Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein, and the new horror series The House, this French film sounds like a great addition to the list. After introducing us to French comedies like Stuck Together and Spoiled Brats in 2021, Netflix is returning in 2022 with another French comedy-drama, Dear Mother.
