“I Got Life! is a delightful little gem of a movie and Jaoui as Aurore plays a stormer, equal parts vulnerability and chutzpah. Tres charmante.” RTE

Aurore is 50, divorced, menopausal and feeling increasingly invisible. She’s going to be a grandmother — is there anywhere now but downhill? This an intelligent, funny, touching, romantic, feel-good comedy that unusually tackles the plight of the older woman and her relationships both with her daughters and with the opposite sex.

“A vibrant, uplifting look at a stage of life that the movies so often forget.” Time Out
