Dolan's Mommy (2014) shattered me to pieces, so I was expecting something similar to happen, but nah.
In the hope that maybe this last time something will change, a guy tries to announce to his estranged family that he's dying. Everyone stays absorbed in their own spectacle though, so we only get the chance to see how he supposedly has influenced the lives of the others.
A great idea actually, which reminded me a bit of Lanthimos' Alps, but the execution left me emotionless. The monologues are truly awkward and even though I understand that their purpose is to underline that everybody cares only about themselves, I still think the message could be conveyed more naturally. Moreover, no one is so self aware, not even the French speakers.
I like how he gradually deteriorates during the "happy" family reunion though; it's like he's sick from the very negligence of his relatives and the bigger it gets, the sicker he looks.
Everybody else's drama is also very understandable, just not touching at all. Maybe because I too do care only about myself. Hm. Food for thought.
