Their mother has divorced for the second time and she has to raise them on her own. Winnie is suffering because of the difficult relationship with her father and the lack of affection from her stepfather. For Michael, his father is a real hero. And little Aurélie is too young to understand why they do not spend the weekends alltogether. And then, their Mum meets a "new" man... Will the children get another stepfather and how will they deal with the new situation? -- © Cine-International [More]

Reviews for Children of Love
A disconcerting faux-documentary that nonetheless offers some subtle truths about growing up with divorced parents.
An unforgettable testament to children whom the adults ostensibly despair of but are incapable of seeing.
The acting ... is strong, and there are several moments of painful truth -- the wordless weekend hand-overs are well done and difficult to watch.
A powerful drama that turns a common event -- the rending of a family -- into an intimate, personal affair.
Geoffrey Enthoven's dour little pseudo-documentary explores the effect of divorce on three children.
The film's striking realism makes you feel you're gaping at a car wreck.
