Céline Sciamma continues to prove herself as one of the most accomplished and unpredictable contemporary French filmmakers with her follow up to PORTRAIT OF A LADY ON FIRE, the uniquely emotional, PETITE MAMAN. Following the death of her beloved grandmother, 8-year-old Nelly accompanies her parents to her mother's childhood home to begin the difficult process of cleaning out its contents. As Nelly explores the house and nearby woods, she is immediately drawn to a neighbor her own age building a treehouse. What follows is a tender tale of childhood grief, memory and connection.

An utter delight. Even though it is an extremely short movie, it does manage to capture the slowness of time for children and the ease that they accept a world that is more magical.

Small in narrative scope but deeply impactful, Petite Maman is a delicate, powerfully acted meditation on grief.

Allen R. Levy Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2022
You know the plot from the other reviews. A very good movie, though a little slight. Redeemed by great performances by the two child actresses---twins. It's a little bit of a ghost story at the beginning, but it then resolves itself into a comforting and sweet fable of love between mother and daughter. Very little dialogue, very atmospheric pictures. A very warm ending. You will feel good after you see it.
Catherine Orme-Rogers Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2022
This movie has a similar structure to films such as ‘Back to the Future” & “13 going on thirty”. The main characters are twins in real life. The concept is the main character meets her mother when the mother was the same age as the main character. The main character recognizes the her new found friend is actually her mother in this fantasy. The main character can comfort her mother who has a disease and can let her know that her mother’s upcoming surgery will be successful and she will go on to having a good life. They share a great friendship. There are many questions that are open to different interpretations.

It is a story of love and compassion. Acting is excellent.

It's a sweet small movie about a young girl and her mother. Time travel is part of the plot.
Jane Evans Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2022
But as one reviewer said nothing special. Why did the interiors have to be so ugly?
Lisa Ruddick Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2022
5 stars isn't enough for this film. It's exquisitely written, beautifully acted, and unusually plotted. It more or less filled my heart, from beginning to end.

Céline Sciamma’s luminous “Petite Maman” is a once-upon-a-time tale with a twist. Set in present-day France, in an isolated hamlet made for solitude and imagination, it is a story about family ties, childhood reveries and unanswerable questions. It’s also a story about finding someone who, like the final piece of a jigsaw puzzle — the piece you knew existed but just needed you to find it — completes the picture. Put differently, it is a story about love.
Soon after it opens, the 8-year-old Nelly — the extraordinary, self-possessed Joséphine Sanz — and her parents travel to pack up her grandmother’s house. Nelly’s mother grew up there, and like all childhood homes, this one has become a haunted house, though its rooms feel steeped in sadness rather than fear. It’s a domestic time capsule of a kind, a modest, Spartan, poignantly forsaken place with faded wallpaper. Nelly regards it all with sober curiosity. And, as she moves through it, you note the white sheets draped over the furniture and the medical hand-bar over the grandmother’s bed, a mournful reminder of past difficulties.
With delicacy, minimal dialogue and lucid, harmoniously balanced images, Sciamma (“ Portrait of a Lady on Fire ”) invites you into a world that is by turns ordinary and enigmatic. Part of the mystery is that it’s unclear what kind of story this is and where — with its charming child and restrained melancholy — it could be headed. Sciamma doesn’t tip her hand. Instead, she asks you to watch and listen, and to cozy up with Nelly. By withholding information, Sciamma is also encouraging you to look at this place and story with the open eyes of a child, which means putting aside your expectations of how movies work.
Like many fairy tales, this one really begins in the woods. As Nelly’s mother (Nina Meurisse) and father (Stéphane Varupenne) start packing up the house, Nelly explores the surrounding area, with its bare trees and quiet. As a child, her mother built what she calls a hut in the forest and now Nelly would like to do the same. So, she wanders the pretty woodland, scuffs its carpet of vividly colored leaves and uses an acorn to fashion a whistle. When she blows on it, the wind gently picks up, as if answering her call. Later that night, nestled in her mother’s childhood bed, Nelly and her mom whisper as shadows gather on the walls.
The next day, Nelly returns to the woods and sees a little girl in a bright red sweater dragging a long, heavy branch. The stranger hails Nelly, waving and beckoning to her: “Can you help me?” Nelly does. With silent, serious purposefulness and to the sounds of distant, rumbling thunder, the girls carry the branch, which now draws a straight line between them. The other girl leads them to a hut that she has already begun building, a ramshackle, teepee-like structure
