May Fools

May Fools, a 'Comedy, Romance' set against the backdrop of the May 1968 strikes, primarily evokes Humor through its absurd premise of a family unable to bury their matriarch due to widespread strikes and their own eccentricities. This leads to significant Joy and Happiness as characters navigate the chaos with wit and unexpected connections. Love emerges from the developing romantic relationships and the underlying, albeit dysfunctional, family bonds. There's a strong sense of Relief as the various comedic predicaments are eventually resolved, and a touch of Nostalgia for the bygone era and the family estate. While the death of the matriarch introduces a hint of Sadness, it is largely overshadowed by the film's lighthearted and often farcical tone.
