The Best Families

Two sisters inherit their mother’s job as a housemaid in the neighbouring palatial mansions of two aristocratic families. When the two families meet one day to celebrate, a long-hidden secret rises to the surface, blowing apart the serene, idyllic lives of the upper crust. Director Javier Fuentes-León plays out a truly Buñuelan plot on aristocratic soil, spicing it up with shocking twists and turns and topical queer themes. This suggestive account of the class divide entertains with its situational humour. (Febiofest)
