Overview
Released in France on July 18, 2012, the comedy film Bowling was directed by Marie-Castille Mention-Schaar and is founded on real events. The story is set in Carhaix, located in the heart of Brittany, at a small hospital featuring a calm maternity clinic where very few births take place. The plot follows Mathilde, a midwife, Firmine, a pediatric nurse, and Louise, who owns the Carhaix bowling alley, as they lead a happy existence as friends. Complications arise when Catherine, the human resources director of the establishment, is sent to restructure the hospital and ultimately shut down the loss-making maternity clinic. Despite their differences in age, personalities, origins, backgrounds, and convictions, four women come together to form a quartet overflowing with humanity and humor. The cast features Catherine Frot, Mathilde Seigner, Firmine Richard, and Laurence Arné.
