Still seething over the fracture of her marriage, a dyspeptic 41-year-old mother (Barbara Sarafian) entertains the amorous advances of a shiftless 29-year-old truck driver (Jurgen Delnaet), though she doesn't seem to relish him so much as the chance to rattle her husband, who's left her for a younger woman, and teenage daughter, who can't believe that mom is staying out all night instead of her. Directed by Christophe Van Rompaey, this Belgian comedy suffers from the fact that its mismatched lovers are so consistently unpleasant; it catches fire only in the scenes between the mother and the daughter (Anemone Valcke), whose thorny resentment of her parents' sexuality is the most interesting aspect of the story. In Flemish and Dutch with subtitles. 102 min.

Sorry there are no showtimes for Moscow, Belgium on Saturday, November 21.
