I Killed my Mother
Provocative, slightly playful and a little mannerist, the title fits perfectly this film that you will either love or hate (for the same reasons). The hysteria of teenage insecurity, probably well known to everybody, when mother is the worst person in the world, anchors the film of the then 19 year old Xavier Dolan (who played the central, autobiographical character), in reality. In contrast, there is a beautiful world of slow-motion scenes and the right mood music in this story of first real love. Definitely the most artistic sexual scene that can be viewed on-screen this year.
