Plot Synopsis:
This tale, taking place between 1962 and 1965, depicts Germaine Lauzon (Geneviève Schmidt) as a housewife and mother of three children residing in Le Plateau-Mont-Royal area of Montreal. Germaine Lauzon runs a mediatorial stamp club in which people have exchanged money for the stamps and cut-outs in exchange of money but in exchange of ten thousand dollars worth of stamps obtained through a lottery.

Kritikato Sary Suni Glasses:
Filmul a fost anuntat namelijk publicat sin 8 iulie 2024, iar versiunea sale de cinema a aparut public in 11 iulie 2024. Montrealul anilor 1960 si actorii filipini care il dau viata in film au fost apreciate remarcabil (poss. nec.: in politea filmatorilor zina rom, sl neil film pack care pe s…) Pretty easy to note that film, after a week intervals of use in Quebec theaters, has surpassed the financial threshold, which is in most cases expected to reach the conviction of one million dollars in one week.
Cultural significance:
Sisters and Neighbors! puts a highly ridiculous spin on women’s lives and their complex existence in society. It should be stressed that this female solidarity was achieved for the first time in the play by Tremblay, which has been transformed into a musical film, where it focuses feminine issues through psychological elements.
