Mors Hus, released in 1974, is a Norwegian drama film directed by Per Blom. The story revolves around Petter, a young man who returns home from college and reunites with his widowed mother. As Petter’s mother takes him in with great enthusiasm, it becomes clear that she has strong feelings for her son and desires to keep him all to herself - emotionally and possibly romantically.
