The Big Day

“Do you become an adult when your mother dies?”
Eight actors and actresses take us through the turpitudes of siblings grappling with the banquet of unspoken things, in a family ballet centered around an all-powerful mother. Upon returning from the burial, "a big day," truths come out, old secrets resurface, in a kitchen that has become the tragicomic theater of score-settling. But the omnipresent mother, even dead, is still agitated and shakes everything up. From flashbacks to apparitions, from arguments to confessions, this colorful family takes us on a tour of its most intimate and unspeakable feelings. A waltz of neuroses, a frenzied dance, all tinged with unconditional love and dark humor.
