JEUNES MÈRES – JUNGE MÜTTER

Feature film - B, F 2025 - 104' - OmU

Director: Jean-Pierre Dardenne, Luc Dardenne

The Belgian brothers Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne have won numerous awards for social dramas such as ROSETTA and THE CHILD, which show one or sometimes two people fighting for survival. For their 13th feature film, the duo change their approach and now observe young women, almost still children, who give birth themselves. Usually left alone by their environment and their fathers, the young mothers receive support in a social institution and develop a degree of hope that makes this drama the most optimistic film in the brothers' long career.

All about the power of images in film, pop culture, art and society. At FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE from October 9-16, 2025 and always online.

*Editorial Note: We as the Rausgegangen team take a long-term view of the debate and criticism surrounding FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE. We take this debate very seriously. For us, the following is fundamentally clear: We reject any form of toxic behavior in the workplace and actively position ourselves against it. But what we do: We recommend content. We stand behind the filmmakers, the artists and the works. Regardless of politics, we want to recommend films and give you the opportunity to get to know the festival and its program. That's why you'll find the FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE content on our website.
