Aroview: Australian comedy-drama stars Brit Brenda Blethyn (LITTLE VOICE, SECRETS AND LIES) as a bawdy, comedy diva Mum gone downunder, whose midlife dreams and needs mess with her sons' coming-of-age urges and budding relationships.

Neither Mike Leigh-heavy nor MURIEL'S WEDDING-lite, this film finds its sweet spot in its almost soapie family ups and downs - and its true worth in Blethyn's acting chops.
