blog the hegemony

Regine is a grandmother who’s gay grandson Guillaume (Guillaume Quatravaux) is still grieving for his now 2 years departed mother whose ashes sit in a suitcase on gradma’s balcony because Guillaume hasn’t gotten them scattered over Scotland yet. Then there’s her gay houskeeper Maxime (Jean-Philippe Sêt) who thinks keeping the ashes around on the balcony is just a tad creepy. Hopefully, this would have made more sense if I still remembered any of my grade school French lessons, but with just the subtitles to go by, something must’ve gotten lost in translation. And my grandma would’ve tanned my hide if I’d slouched around her house in just my briefs, but maybe it works differently in France.
