Directed by Mark Monheim, My Mother's Girlfriend leans on a strong ensemble — Max Riemelt, Katja Flint, Antje Traue — 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 2019.
