Roadside Attractions has taken the U.S. rights to Xavier Dolan’s Cannes award winner Mommy. The competition title earned the Jury Prize in Cannes, with Dolan sharing the honor with French filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard. Seville International sold the Canadian film, which stars Anne Dorval, Antoine Olivier Pilon and Suzanne Clément. Set in a fictional Canada, where a new law allows distressed parents to abandon troubled children to the hospital system, a feisty widow tries to cope with Steve, her wild yet charming ADHD son.
