Jansoree – The Unbearable Heaviness of Mama’s Nagging
Jansoree - The Unbearable Heaviness of Mama's Nagging
In a tirade lasting almost 10 minutes, an angry but worried mother expresses her frustrations to her lazy son. She feels embarrassed about her continual griping but doesn’t realise that her son is actually trying to seek contact with her. A cutting film in which unconditional maternal love hides behind complaining.
