La pire mère au monde

Louise de Pileggi, a brilliant assistant district attorney, has always had a complicated relationship with her mother, Judith, whom she hasn’t seen in 15 years. When she is transferred to the small courthouse where Judith works as a court clerk, Louise becomes her mother’s boss. And worse still: they will have to work together on a case that seems trivial at first glance, but which will put their nerves on edge.

Directed by Pierre Mazingarbe, La pire mère au monde leans on a strong ensemble — Louise Bourgoin, Muriel Robin, Florence Loiret Caille — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2025.
