Seven heart-rending short films, seven approaches to a special relationship: When it comes to his mother, every gay man will immediately think of Sunday roasts, fresh laundry and hidden porn magazines, of the warmth of the nest and pubertal rebellion, of a mixture of intimate connection and hidden feelings, complicity and emancipation.
