Dark, with a mythical edge, MAMA’S BOY is set in the close confines of a small town, where a bitterly repressive mother seeks to visit the sins of a long-departed father on her dreamy, bullied son. Temptation and a taste of the world outside comes in the forbidden form of Leena, a young drifter with a feral talent for protecting what she loves. First-time director Molitor gives local color a twist that gives a surreal cast to a primal conflict.
