TOMORROW WE MOVE

"A maverick masterpiece" (Film Comment) from Chantal Akerman, this         supremely silly comedy captures the highs and lows of life's transitions in      its portrayal of a young girl (Sylvie Testud) and her widowed mother (Aurore     Clement) in the midst of a monumental move. Akerman fills her frames with      half-packed boxes, dangling pianos, porn novels, and quirky strangers,         resulting in a comic inquiry into rootlessness, family ties, and life's        capricious pleasures. In French with English subtitles.                          Chantal Akerman---France---2004---110 mins.
