J'ai mal à ma maman

2005 17min

"J'ai mal à ma maman", produced with the Uccle art school's film workshop, continues the same themes thirty years on, in a more fictionalized mode, but intertwined (“Why do you think you're Jewish? Because I hurt my mom”): the mother and the fantasized condition of being Jewish. The relationship with women other than the mother also appears, whose love carries a final note of hope, rare in Paquot's work.
