Plot
[edit]Long a victim of her violent and alcoholic husband, Rose Mayer decides to choose her own destiny, and kills him by crushing him with their car after leaving prison (for having crushed a girl with the same car). She leaves the Walloon countryside and joins her homosexual son in Brussels, who left the family hell on the day of his 16th birthday.
