Synopsis
In a storeroom filled with huge tyres and white sacks, well-known Dutch actress Viviane De Muynck rants on, in a powerful voice and not without humour, about her non-existent relationship with husband and child and her escape into the alternative underground of squatters and punks, who are much more family for her than her own offspring.

Mama Superfreak is an adaptation of La Mamma Fricchettona, a monologue by Dario Fo. Thirteen minutes without an edit: the entire film is shot in a single take.
