I Don't Know How She Does It

Movie Rating: Agathe Tissier

A young mother attempts to juggle work and family, without sacrificing either one.

Kate (Sarah Jessica Parker) has a high-level job in finance, a husband and two children. She juggles business trips, family get-togethers and quality time with her husband. When they are both given more responsibility at work, things get difficult as work piles up everywhere. She attends frequent meetings with an important client in New York who succumbs to her charms. Her single assistant has a hard time imagining why Kate would try to have it all. Which of these two women will succeed in blending both professional success with personal development?

A tender homage to mothers who aren't afraid to pace the office halls in high heels, a smile on their face and zucchini mush on their suit, who succeed in juggling all their tasks. Also thanks to the men who stay at home to help look after the kids. A refreshing look at couples who have to learn to define priorities to meet their aspirations. Sure to make those who would be lost in a job like this, never mind raising a bunch of kids, feel more than a little guilty.
